5 In the \b Geometry module you can set preferences for visualisation of
6 geometrical figures, which can be used in later sessions with this module.
7 There is also a special group of preferences controlling input
8 precision for floating-point data.

13 To redefine any color click on the corresponding line to access to
14 the <b>Select Color</b> dialog box.
17 <li><b>General</b></li>
19 <li><b>Default display mode</b> - allows to choose between wireframe, shading or
20 shading with edges.</li>
21 <li><b>Default shading color</b> - allows to select default shading
23 <li><b>Edges in shading</b> - allows to select default edges color in shading mode.</li>
24 <li><b> Default wireframe color</b> - allows to select default
25 wireframe color (to be applied to any lines not being free boundaries
26 or isolated lines).</li>
27 <li><b>Color of free boundaries</b> - allows to select default color for free boundaries.</li>
28 <li><b>Color of edges, vectors and wires</b> - allows to select
29 default color for edges, vectors and wires (isolated lines).</li>
30 <li><b>Color of points</b> - allows to select default color for
32 <li><b>Color of isolines</b> - allows to select default color for
34 <li><b>Step value for spin boxes</b> - allows to define the increment
35 of values set in spin boxes.</li>
36 <li><b>Deflection coefficient</b> - allows to define default deflection
37 coefficient for lines and surfaces. A smaller coefficient provides
38 better quality of a shape in the viewer.</li>
39 <li><b>Show predefined materials in popup menu</b> - allows to customize the displaying of popup menu with list of
40 predefined materials.</li>
41 <li><b>Default material</b> - allows to define default material.</li>
42 <li><b>Subshapes color for editing a group</b> - allows to select default color for subshapes in a group.</li>
43 <li><b>Edges width</b> - allows to define default width of the edges.</li>
44 <li><b>Isolines width</b> - allows to define default width of the isolines.</li>
45 <li><b>Preview edges width</b> - allows to define width of the edges for preview.</li>
46 <li><b>Measures line width</b> - allows to define lines width of measurements tools.</li>
47 <li><b>Automatic bring to front</b> - when option is ON: the objects selected by the user will be automatically
48 made "top-level".</li>
54 <li><b>Number of isolines</b></li> - this submenu allows to specify the
55 number of isolines along the axes of coordinates:
63 <li><b>Input fields precision</b></li>
65 <li><b>Length precision</b> - allows to ajust input precision of coordinates and dimensions.</li>
66 <li><b>Angular precision</b> - allows to ajust input precision of angles.</li>
67 <li><b>Length tolerance precision</b> - allows to ajust input precision of tolerance of coordinates and dimensions.</li>
68 <li><b>Angular tolerance precision</b> - allows to ajust input precision of tolerance of angles.</li>
69 <li><b>Weight precision</b> - allows to ajust input precision of weight and mass.</li>
70 <li><b>Density precision</b> - allows to ajust input precision of density.</li>
71 <li><b>Parametric precision</b> - allows to ajust input precision of parametric values.</li>
72 <li><b>Parametric tolerance precision</b> - allows to ajust input precision of tolerance in parametric space.</li>
77 <li><b>Marker of Points</b></li>
79 <li><b>Type</b> - allows to select the symbol for representation of
80 points (cross, asterisk, etc.).</li>
81 <li><b>Size</b> - allows to define the size of the marker from 1
82 (smallest) to 7 (largest).</li>
87 <li><b>Origin and base vectors</b></li>
89 <li><b>Length of base vectors</b> - allows to define the length
91 <li><b>Auto create</b> - allows to automatically create a point
92 of origin and three base vectors of the rectangular coordinate
93 system immediately after the module activation.</li>
99 <li><b>Operations</b></li>
101 <li><b>Preview</b> - allows to customize the displaying preview by default.</li>
