To display the Options dialog box, select Tools > Options from the Stylus Studio menu bar.

Fields

Automatically check for externally modified files

If there are files that are part of your XML application and they are modified outside Stylus Studio while you are working on the application in Stylus Studio, Stylus Studio prompts you to indicate whether you want to update the file in Stylus Studio.

Disable check on hidden files

Hidden files are files that are in the Stylus Studio project or the Other Documents folder but not open in Stylus Studio windows. In some situations, it is useful to refresh your open files after hidden files have been updated. In other situations, doing this is unnecessary.

Automatically save modified files every nnn minutes

You can specify whether and how often you want Stylus Studio to automatically save your open files.

Automatically add the Base Catalog to new projects

The Stylus Studio Base Catalog, which is bundled with every Stylus Studio installation, is a collection of over one dozen popular catalogs that conform to the OASIS catalog standard. By adding the Base Catalog to a project, any XML file in the project that are associated with files inside the catalog (a schema or DTD, for example) is validated against that catalog file.

Upon startup

Specifies the actions Stylus Studio takes when it is started:

Check for newer versions

Specifies whether Stylus Studio automatically checks the Stylus Studio Web site to determine if a newer version of Stylus Studio is available. If a newer version is detected, Stylus Studio displays an animated button in its status bar. Click the button to download the new version.
