This page lists preferences that used to be used in the host software, but have now been abandoned.

General Preferences

AxisCount=3

The number of Cartesian axes in the machine. String theory aside, we live in three dimensions...

BackFactor=2.0

A viewcone parameter needed for Java 3D, q.v.

BoundFactor=3.0

A viewcone parameter needed for Java 3D, q.v.

DisplaySimulation=false

This is normally set and reset by the "Display Paths" button on the RepRap control window, and so should not be hand-edited. Setting this true will cause a new window to be opened in which each segment laid down by the RepRap machine is represented as a line, so you can see the build happening on the computer's screen as each slice is being processed.
