Synthesis Settings

The Synthesis Settings page of the Application Setup can be changed from within any ReliaSoft desktop application.

• Interface sets the language and the skin (color scheme) for the software interface. Selecting a skin shows you a preview of the changes in the Application Setup window. The change takes effect in the rest of the interface the next time you launch each application.

  Note that a language change will not affect applications that are currently available only in English.

• Open With sets the ReliaSoft application to launch by default when you double-click an *.rsr19 or *.rserp file from this computer. If you want to be prompted to choose an application each time, select Show the ReliaSoft Launcher.

• Recent Repositories List sets the maximum number of recently saved database files to be displayed in the "Recent Repositories" list in the Backstage view.

• Auto Save specifies when folios and diagrams will be saved automatically. The application always saves folios/diagrams upon calculate or close. If you want to also save periodically while you're editing, specify an interval. This can be useful if you're working across a network in an enterprise database.

• • Allow multiple projects (project explorer) applies to ReliaSoft desktop applications that use the current project explorer (i.e., Weibull++, ALTA, BlockSim, RENO, RGA, and Lambda Predict). Select the check box if you want to have multiple projects open at the same time. There is a separate setting for project windows in XFMEA/RCM++/RBI. (See Working with Multiple Projects.)

  • Show project name in opened folios applies to ReliaSoft desktop applications that use the current project explorer (i.e., Weibull++, ALTA, BlockSim, RENO, RGA, and Lambda Predict). It shows the project name in [brackets] on the tab or window caption. This may be useful when you have multiple projects open at the same time.

  • Use web-based help. Select the check box to always make F1 and other help commands open the most up-to-date help file from the Internet when possible. If you clear this check box, they open the local help file that was installed with the software.

  • Highlight 'Active' category in ribbon applies a highlight color to the label that shows which tabs are currently active.

  • Use non-modal Resource Manager locks the Resource Manager in a top window position so it can remain open while you have access to the project. If not selected, you must close the Resource Manager to return to the project.

  • Warn when changing metric associations shows a warning when you select an existing metric in a situation that will change the metric's associated model. (See Showing Metrics in Folios/Diagrams.)

  • Hide unused project folders applies to ReliaSoft desktop applications that use the current project explorer (i.e., Weibull++, ALTA, BlockSim, RENO, RGA, and Lambda Predict). It hides from view all folders that do not contain any project items.

• Highlight colors sets the colors used to color-code values in the following analyses:

• • Results in the FMRA in BlockSim and XFMEA/RCM++/RBI

  • Certain BlockSim plots

  • BlockSim FRED reports

  • BlockSim allocation analysis

  • Spread of failure rate contributions in a prediction folio in Lambda Predict.
