Conductor settings
==================

QElectroTech provides the option to storage at the Data from the application some `project properties`_ 
pre-defined by the user. This feature allows the user avoiding to define many `project properties`_ 
each time that the user `creates new projects`_. 

The **Conductor** tab from **New project** settings section allows pre-defining some `conductor properties`_:

    * `Conductor type`_ (`Multiline`_ or `Single line`_).
    * `Conductor appearance`_.

To define conductor settings: 

    1. `Display`_ QElectroTech settings PopUP window.
    2. Go to **New project** section.
    3. Go to **Conductor** tab.
    4. Define the desired parameters for each field.
    5. Press **OK** button to save the configuration changes and close settings PopUP window.

.. note::

    All pre-defined conductor properties defined at QElectroTech settings PopUP window will be

    can be found at `Conductor tab`_ from `New folio`_ section.
