Activating the expert mode


The expert mode can be activated by selecting the check-box 'Expert mode' in the 'File' menu. The expert mode setting is being saved in every Period04 project file and will be reactivated automatically when the project is opened again.

It is possible to start Period04 in the expert mode by default. For this purpose you have to edit the Period04 preferences file which is located in your user directory. Change the setting for "PROGRAM_MODE" from "DEFAULT" to "EXPERT" as shown in this excerpt:
PROGRAM_MODE                               EXPERT
#
# start the program in the given mode
# possible values: DEFAULT
#                  EXPERT

From now, the program will start in expert mode right away.
