Synchronize Documents by Default

  • No — User must manually select to download documents.
Check version updates on startup

MultiSelect

Documents

Document Viewer

  • Internal — Use the built-in document viewer of eGo to view documents.

Preferred document version

  • Download latest (slower) – In online mode, download the latest document from eShare.

  • Open synchronized (faster) – In online mode, prefer to use the already synchronized, previously opened document.
Use metadata to check if document has changed

  • Yes — The last modification date for the document is retrieved from metadata, and a previously synchronized document is used, if the document has not been changed. This will improve the time used in synchronization. Press Select to select the used metadata.

  • No — Metadata is not used.
Open online help

  • No — The local help is used.

Cache

Clear cache files of unused models
