Toggle dialog tweak

Unread post by Phil C »

In HM6, when inserting a new toggle, the toggle dialog "remembers" most of the settings used on previous toggle inserts. This is a wonderful time-saver.

However, the time saving is basically negated by the fact that HM6 always defaults to setting the "Link style (blue underlined)" option to checked, which I always then have to uncheck. :roll: :? :( :?

Please, please, please, please either remember that I don't check this option, or give me an option somewhere to default this setting to unchecked.

Currently my biggest annoyance in the HM6 UI.

Hi Phil,

I agree absolutely that this needs changing, I've passed on a reminder. However, I don't run into this problem in my own work because with very few exceptions, I no longer create my toggles directly. I have a number of rather complex toggle types that I use all the time and I have them all saved as snippets, so all my settings are already as I want to have them when I insert the snippet.

This setting has indeed been overlooked. Will be included with the next minor update.
