Preferences dialog box
The Preferences dialog box contains pages that enable you to customize Functional Tester in a number of different areas, such as settings for time options; colors for the Verification Point Editor, the Verification Point Comparator, and the Object Map Editor; highlight color for test objects; operating system; playback; delays; log; playback monitor; ScriptAssure(TM); recorder; recording monitor; and the workbench.
The Preferences dialog box has the following tabs. Click on the tab name below for information about how to use that tab.
- Functional Test
- Use to easily increase or decrease all Functional Tester time options.
- Highlight

- Operating System
- Use to indicate values that are operating system-dependent.
- Playback
- Use to indicate settings for Functional Tester script playback.
