Can I place this on the "Wish List"? It would make a large-scale deployment lot easier; it could (with the addition of a Reset button in the Options dialog) give users a way to revert their settings back to the company defaults if they needed to; and it would be easier to build and maintain preferred settings by copying an existing .properties file than by mucking around with command-line arguments.

This is not possible. However you can ``force'' property values using command-line arguments. How to do this is explained here: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/help/apas01.html The reference of property values is found here: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/help/com.xmlmind.xmleditap p.dialog.PreferencesEditorDialog.html Example: Option "Use URL chooser rather than file chooser": --- Use URL chooser rather than file chooser If this toggle is checked, XXE will display an URL chooser dialog box rather than the standard file chooser dialog box each time the user needs to specify a file name. Default: not checked. Preference key: useURLChooser; type: boolean; default: false. <---!!! ---
