7.6.3.5 Command Line options tab
Use the Command Line Options tab to open the Explorer using a shortcut with the preset values for such func-
tions as viewing settings. This requires assigning the corresponding parameters to the shortcut.
These parameters are listed in the following table.
The easiest way to pass the right parameter set to the shortcut is to customize the user
interface of the Explorer as desired and then to update and highlight the entries on the
Command Line Options tab. Use CTRL+C or the copy command from the context menu to copy
these entries and then paste them into the Properties dialog box of the shortcut.
The Explorer's user interface can be customized as needed. For example, a screen similar to the former inde-
pendent application Layout Selector can be specified by hiding the object tree and the Remote Desktop.
Cerate a shortcut incl. the corresponding command line options to launch an instance of the Explorer using this
user interface.
The number of parameters definable for a Windows shortcut is limited.
The user-specific ApolloExplorer.ini file is NOT overwritten when launching an Explorer instance
using a shortcut with an Ident parameter.
