All user settings are hold as long as the dialog plugin is closed through its close button and not through tS itself.
No registry entries.
LIMITATIONS:
- No rotational transformation matrix is performed; the plugin follows correct rotations only in 3D reset view and on top view;
- tSxapi short style is set as TEXT_STYLE_NONE, since I found that no other styles works, neither if the font's name is specified inside the code; thus to display bold or italic must be installed a fonts itself shaped apart with that feature, and not as one of its styles (there are lot for free on the net of such a fonts).
- Yet another API limitation is that not all fonts are managed; some default installed system fonts does crashes tS when the tsxTextCreate API try to call it; thus the plugin is shipped with a "FontExclusionList.ini" file in which to write fonts that are found to crash tS. Up to 20 entries are allowed; the fonts' names must be written like are displayed within the plugin's fontlist, blank spaces included. The font(s) will be not removed; the plugin just will prevent their use. Default fonts that I've found crashing tS are:
Courier
Fixedsys
MS Serif
MS Sans Serif
Small Fonts
System
All these are already set within the exclusion list.
Note that these fonts are correctly displayed only through the common tS text tool; thus I think that the tsxapi for the text doesn't work like would be and is a bit buggy and incomplete. Anyhow, one can try whether on own system they are working by removing them from the exclusion list. Do not erase the file, though. Plugin developed and tested on tS 6.6; it would work for tS 5.1 and above.
