4.2.7.1 Adding a new section or setting
You can add a new section to a selected configuration
file, or a new setting to a section. Under ADD
new item on the Configuration Manager Action
page, choose one of the following:
Add new fixed-name
section to file
|
A fixed-name section is pretty much any configuration
section that is neither a format definition nor a macro definition. You
select from applicable section names on the Section
page.
|
Add new variable-name
section to file
|
To add a macro definition, select this option.
You get to specify the name on the Section
page.
|
Add new setting
to section
|
If you try to add a setting to a file that does
not contain the section that the setting belongs in, the Configuration
Manager creates that section for you. Do not use
for macro definitions.
|
Add new variable-key setting to one section
|
You get to choose the configuration section where
you want the new setting. Do not use for macro
definitions.
|
If you try to add a section to a file that already
has a section by the same name, the Configuration Manager presents the
existing section for you to edit instead; see §4.2.7.2 Editing a section or setting.
Note:
You cannot add a setting to a named macro. Macro sections
do not contain settings. Instead, choose Edit
full section content; see §4.2.7.2 Editing a section or setting.
Click Apply action;
the Configuration Manager switches to the Section
page, the Setting page, or the .ini file page, depending on the action
and the available sections or settings.
