+ | ====== Configuring Session (Login Dialog) ====== | ||
+ | Session is configured using Login dialog that comes up just after the program is started. It can be invoked also later to open additional sessions. On Login dialog the options are categorised to tabs, which are documented separately. The tabs with the advanced options are hidden unless //Advanced options// checkbox below navigation tree is ticked. | ||
+ | |||
+ | &screenshotpict(login_session) | ||
+ | |||
+ | When there are no stored sessions yet, //[[ui_login_session|Session tab]]// is displayed by default. Once user stores at least one session on //[[ui_login_stored_sessions|Stored sessions tab]]//, the //Stored sessions tab// will become default next time the Login dialog is opened. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Once the session is configured, it can be either opened by pressing //Login// button or [[ui_login_save|saved]] for future use by pressing //Save// button. | ||
