Concept​

The Main settings panel manages settings that apply too many visual components and tools.
Yuo access it through the wheel icon on the top.

Saving​

Spider saves users configurations and settings continuously on the server.

This allows reloading from anywhere, so that you will enjoy your customised experience on any of your devices and browsers.

Saving settings:

  • is done after some time (not at each change), waiting for your settings to be settled before saving ;)
  • may be deactivated at will when you want to try something special.

note

The feature is deactivated when loading a shared link.
This avoids to override your settings from those of the link.

Saving in progress​

  • The icon goes white when you performed a change of your settings that is not saved.
  • The settings wheel turns when saving.
