MiniCad+ will create a preferences file in your System folder the first time you use it. If you are running under System 7.0 or above, the preferences file will quite naturally be put in the Preferences folder, nested within the System folder. With System 6.x, the preferences file will just be placed in the System folder.
This preferences file is retained if you reinstall a upgrade to MiniCad+; this keeps you from having to reenter your serial number or all of your preferences after a maintence upgrade. You have to physically throw the preferences file in the Trash in order to remove it. If you are upgrading to MiniCad+ 4.0 from version 3.1, the preferences file will have to be updated with the new program's serial number.
If, however, you are reinstalling MiniCad+ because of some problem you are encountering, it is best to discard the preferences file and let the reinstalled MiniCad+ 4 create a new one.
The following settings will be saved in this file:
• your name and serial number
• current font and size
• thin lines - on or off
• state of the tool, constrain and data palettes (position and opened/closed status)
• snap to locus - on or off
