\anchor pref_settings <h2>Settings</h2>

In the \b Geometry module you can set preferences for visualization of
geometrical figures, which can be used right now or in later sessions 
with this module according to the preferences.

To redefine any color click on the corresponding line to access to
the <b>Select Color</b> dialog box.

color.</li>

</ul>
</ul>

<ul>
<li><b>Dimensions (Measurements)</b> - a group of preferences controlling the presentation of dimensions.</li>
<ul>
<li><b>Color</b> - allows to define color for persistent dimension presentations.</li>

<li><b>Show units of measurements</b> - when this option is on, the measurement units are added as prefix to value label of dimension.</li>
<li><b>Default flyout length</b> - allows to define default flyout length used when creating the dimensions. The length can be interactively changed after creation by moving the flyouts.</li>
</ul>
</ul>

<ul>
<li><b>Default number of isolines</b> - allows to specify the default number of isolines along <b>Along U</b> and <b>Along V</b> coordinate axes. They are shown on each selected face. For example:

This preference is not related with <b>Create Isoline</b> operation. 
By default <b>Along U</b> and <b>Along V</b> are null and isolines are not drawn. </li>
 
</ul>

<ul>
<li><b>Input fields precision</b> - a group of preferences controlling input
  precision for floating-point data. The semantics of the precision
  values is described in detail in <em>Using input widgets</em>
  chapter of GUI documentation (Introduction to Salome Platform /
  Introduction to GUI / Using input widgets). In brief: \b positive
  precision value is the maximum allowed number of digits after the
  decimal point in the fixed-point format; \b nagative precision value
  is the maximum allowed number of significant digits in mantissa in
  either the fixed-point or scientific format.</li>

<li><b>Parametric precision</b> - allows to adjust input precision of parametric values.</li>
<li><b>Parametric tolerance precision</b> - allows to adjust input precision of tolerance in parametric space.</li>
</ul>
