a two column layout with the Weblog and Feed hierarchies in one
column, and the table/viewer in another column.
-
Three column layout – If selected, Thingamablog’s main window
has a three column layout with the Weblog hierarchy, Feed hierarchy,
and table/viewer each in a separate column.
-
Look and Feel – Selects the look and feel of the application.
The default look and feel is the platform’s native look and feel.
Changing the look and feel takes effect the next time Thingamablog is
restarted. Note: Some look and feels may only be supported under
certain platforms.
Pinging Options
- Ping services after publishing - If selected, the weblog's ping services will be automatically pinged after a publish.
Editor Options
-
Dictionary – Selects the spell checker’s dictionary.
Thingamablog ships with a limited English dictionary file only. You can,
however, add support for different languages by copying dictionary
files to <INSTALL_DIR>/dictionaries. Thingamablog uses the open source "Jazzy"
spell check engine and requires Jazzy compatable dictionary files. Additional dictionary files
can be downloaded from the Jaxe project (Currently only American, British, French, and German
languages are supported.)
-
Editor Font – Selects the style and size of fonts for the Entry
Editor and Template/HTML editor. Note: Some fonts won’t always display
correctly.
