# Preferences Dialogue Box

Use this dialogue box to configure how CodeSnip works. The dialogue box is accessed via the Tools | Preferences menu option.

The dialogue box is divided into different "pages". Each page is listed by name in the pane on the left hand side of the dialogue box. Selecting one of these names displays the related page of options on the right.

The sections are:

- Display
- Snippet Layout
- Code Generation
- Code Formatting
- Syntax Highlighter
- Printing
- Misc.

Click OK to accept all the changes or Cancel to close the dialogue without making changes.

The last page you selected is remembered and is displayed again the next time you open the dialogue box. This happens regardless of whether you close the dialogue box with OK or Cancel.

Note: On some occasions this dialogue box may be displayed with just one page visible. An example of this is when the Default Options button of the Print dialogue box is clicked – only the Printing page is displayed.
