3.7.1 Understanding how export options work

Export options both reflect and affect configuration settings:

• When you change an option in the Export dialog (see Figure 3-5), Mif2Go makes the corresponding change to relevant settings in your project configuration file.

• When you change a relevant setting in your project configuration file, next time you open the Export dialog it will show this change to the corresponding option.

When you rerun a conversion, the Export dialog shows the options you checked the last time you ran the conversion; unless, in the meantime, you altered the corresponding settings in the project configuration file. Table 3-2 lists the configuration-file settings that correspond to each export option. Default values that differ from the corresponding set-up value are shown in red.
