  • Always ask (selected by default) if you want to be asked each time a change is detected.
Automatically shows the Debug Window when an error occurs If enabled, the Debug window is automatically displayed as soon as an error occurs in the execution of a Behavior.
Start Choregraphe without the 3D

Replaces the 3D view with a static 2D picture of the robot. So you do not have any feedback anymore about the move of the robot but it does not take so much processor.

Moreover, with H25 and H21, you are still able to move the joints of the robot by selecting the body part you want to move.

For further details, see Robot view.
Use monospaced font in script editor

If enabled, the font used in the script editor is monospaced.

It means that any character will take the same space on the screen as another (which is not the case of the font used by default).
Use 3D controller for motors (Experimental) If enabled, the Motion widget is replaced by the Forward kinematics mode - Experimental.
Activate dialog widget (Experimental)

If enabled, thebeta version of Dialog widget is available for testing.

For further details, see: Dialog panel - Experimental.
