External Editor Utility (Magic xpa 2.x)

The External Editor utility lets end users change the Magic xpa settings that are defined in the Studio's Environment Editor.

The Magic xpa directory includes an executable file, called MgxpaSettings.exe, which is available in both the Studio and Runtime.

You edit the settings by selecting the As current option from the Edit menu or the Options menu (depending on the values assigned to the various Allow Access environment settings).

Changes made using this utility will take affect the next time the application is run.

The utility supports the command line options, such as ‘/ini=xxx’, '/user=xxx' and '@ini'. This lets you provide a silent login and lets you use your own ini file with a reference to you settings files (such as colors and users).

When the utility is launched with the addition of '/StartApplication' in the command line, the application will be opened behind the scenes and the application will appear as the Project Name in the Environment/User ID/Rights dialog box.
