scratch.ini

What exactly does it do/can you do with it? I tried setting "showConsole" to 1, but it didn't do anything.

Does anyone know what it does?

Re: scratch.ini

No idea. I would assume it's a settings file, but like you said, it doesn't seem to change anything.  hmm

Re: scratch.ini

Code:

[Global]
DeferUpdate=1
ShowConsole=0
DynamicConsole=0
ReduceCPUUsage=0
ReduceCPUInBackground=0
3ButtonMouse=0
1ButtonMouse=0
UseDirectSound=1
PriorityBoost=1
B3DXUsesOpenGL=1
CaseSensitiveFileMode=0
EnableAltF4Quit=0

INI files are mainly settings files. These were the contents of mine. Of course I never edited mine, so this could be the default.

Re: scratch.ini

I remember I found this tag in "Bingo.ini" from Bingo:

Code:

ImageFile="Bingo.image"

When I tried to use it for other purposes, it didn't seem to work, so IDK.


Yawn.

Re: scratch.ini

When I was testing out Scratch 1.4 Beta I accidentally deleted the INI file and mistakenly reported to the Scratch team that the camera didn't work. Simply restoring said file completely solved the problem, so the file obviously has some sort of use.

Yeah, I realized that. Editing it doesn't do anything though.

Re: scratch.ini

EnableAltF4Quit=0
- Changing 0 to 1 would let you quit with Alt+F4

Re: scratch.ini

Alt-F4 still works with it set to 0.
I think the ini file may have something to do with this.

Re: scratch.ini

Maybe you have to reload it into scratch like the skin.

Re: scratch.ini

ScratchFrameMorph startup contains code that reads startup files...

Re: scratch.ini

Yeah, I kind of assumed that. I tried restarting Scratch and it didn't do anything either.
