Settings

Open Edit → Settings…. Available pages depend on the build.

Available groups

• Recent projects: maximum retained entries;
• On startup: reopen the last project;
• Online content: web cache size and clearing;
• Multimedia: default List or Thumbnails mode;
• Dates: localised numeric, abbreviated or full format;
• Maps: options by build; place lookup and family spread share an online vector basemap;
• Sources and people graph: full or minimal cards;
• Genealogical diagram: life symbols and portrait style;
• Language: interface language.

1. Select a group on the left.
2. Adjust values.
3. Confirm with OK.

Coming soon: Screenshot of Settings and its groups.

Some changes, especially language, may require a restart; verify in the application.

Fonts

Fonts → Manuscript transcription sets editor fonts; Fonts → Labels sets shared heraldic reconstruction/description label fonts. Choose family, size and style, preview or reset. Confirming updates open views; Cancel applies nothing. These are display preferences, not project content changes.

Directories and moving data

Under Directories (under Storage depending on build), set content, models/runtimes, training runs, templates, research aids, caches and settings locations. Browse… selects the parent; the application appends its subdirectory. Choose shared data directory… sets separate stores together.

Changes take effect at next startup, including transfer and verification. Destinations must be new/empty and stores cannot be nested. Allow room for a working copy and keep the destination disk available. Compatible links remain at old paths; do not delete them. Project files themselves are not moved. Close other application instances before changing locations.

HTR has a shared parent directory with separate Kraken/Party subfolders. Select and verify custom runtimes under HTR; users maintain these themselves.

Graphs

GUI → Graphs → Relationship lines switches straight/curved lines in both genealogy and heraldic research graphs. It changes no data, object positions or Undo history.
