Configuration options
Whenever a key needs to be defined in the configuration file, the names from the following table can
be used. Where necessary the “Remarks” column specifies some things to note. All key names are
case insensitive, so “A” denotes the same key as “a”.

Logging
The Visualizer can write information about what is going on to a file. This can help in choosing the
right values for options in the configuration file. The name of the file is
visualizer_log.txt
and it will be
put in the same directory as the Visualizer DLL. Logging incurs a performance penalty, so it should be
disabled once the settings in visualizer.ini have been finalized.

Display resolution
For 3D output it is required that the screen resolution is set to the native resolution of the display. If
the application does not support the native screen resolution and switches to a different one on
startup, the Visualizer can change the resolution back. This method is not preferred and should only be
used as a last resort. Set the settings below to 0 to disable resolution switching.
