The User Preferences File contains information about a particular users preferred settings.
An stPro session can be automatically configured with a users preferred settings by loading a User Preferences File.
By convention User Preference Files have an extension of '.sphPreference'.
Tip: By saving and restoring multiple User Preference Files a group of users can share consoles and/or stPro sessions, whilst still being able to configure the application to their own specific requirements. This can be very beneficial to people who are color blind as they can configure their own color palette to provide the best differentiation between colors without impacting other users.
User Preference files contain details such as:
The line styles to use for the plot grid, bad and filtered data.
The colors to use for the plot window (foreground, cursor, grid lines etc).
The details of the users personal colour palette.
Advanced settings for time zones.
Plot behaviour characteristics.
