Hidden options


Program has several "hidden" options that cannot be changed using configuration dialogs. They must be changed by manual editing the Viewer.ini file. You can open this file using UV command "Options -- Advanced -- Manually edit configuration file". After saving changes, you must restart UV for changes will take effect.

[Options] section
FileNextMsg "File -- Next / Previous file" commands: If set to 0, it disables messages about first/last file in a directory.
FileSkipHidden "File -- Next / Previous file" commands: If set to 0, hidden files will not be skipped while going through a directory.
FileMoveDelay "File -- Rename / Move to filder" commands: Delay (in msec, default is 800) between closing the file and moving operation. May need increasing if Move operation doesn't work with PDF files.
StatusUrlWidth Width of Codepage/URL statusbar panel (default is about 300 px).
ModeUndetected This is number of mode used for unknown file types. It is 1 (Text mode) by default, but you may change it to 2 (Binary), 3 (Hex) or 8 (RTF/UTF-8).
ModesDisabled This is list of modes numbers (from 1 to 8, separated by spaces), which will be disabled for mode auto-detection procedure. For example, if this list is "5 7 8", then Internet, Plugins and RTF/UTF-8 modes will not be used for mode auto-detection procedure.
[Text] section
MaxClip Sets maximal data size, in Mb, for copying to Clipboard in Text/Binary/Hex/Unicode modes. Default value is 16 (Mb), which prevents visual "hanging" when too large block is selected accidentally before copying.
[Media] section
AutoAdv By default, when UV is run with @FileList parameter and several media clips are present in the file list, these clips are played one after another. If this option set to 0, it will disable "playlist auto advance", so you'll have to manually run "File -- Next file" command to advance playlist.
[Shortcuts] section
MenuItemID Changes the shortcut for the given menu item. Shortcuts can be configured in the Options dialog, but if you cannot assign some of them in the dialog (e.g. Esc and BackSpace cannot be assigned there), you can change them by manually editing these parameters.
