Customizing the SSU
You can customize the GUI according to your preferences. The AF sets these preferences and
saves them in the AF.INI file so that they take effect the next time you start the SSU. Use these six
user-customizable settings:
• BackColor—(default = 3) lets you change the BACKGROUND color associated with
different items on the screen to predefined color combinations. The changes are instantaneous.
• Color—(default = 0) lets you change the WINDOW color preference selection to predefined
color combinations. The changes are instantaneous.
• UserMode—(default = expert) lets you set the desired expertise level.
Novice
Intermediate
Expert
The expertise level determines which tasks are visible in the Available Tasks section and what
actions each task performs. For a new mode setting to take effect, you must exit the SSU and
restart it. In the current implementation, there is no distinction between these three different
modes.
• Language—(default = EN) lets you change the text displayed in the SSU to the appropriate
language. For a new language setting to take effect, you must exit the SSU and restart it. For
a list of Alpha-2 language codes, see the ISO 639:1988 and ISO 3166-1993 specifications.
• Locale—(default = US) lets you change the current locale used in the SSU environment. For a
new locale to take effect, you must exit the SSU and restart it. For a list of Alpha-2 locale
codes, see the ISO 639:1988 and ISO 3166-1993 specifications.
• Other—lets you change other miscellaneous options in the SSU. The changes are immediate.
To change the interface default values:
• Use the mouse to click the proper button in the Preferences section of the SSU Main window.
OR
• Use the tab and arrow keys to highlight the desired button, and press the spacebar or <Enter>.
OR
• Access the menu bar with the mouse or hot keys (Alt + underlined letter).

NOTE
If you run the SSU from nonwritable media (like a CD-ROM), these
preferences will be lost when you exit the SSU.
