# General

Specifies the general settings for LibreOfficeDev.

To access this command...

Choose LibreOfficeDev - Preferences Tools - Options - LibreOfficeDev - General.

## Help

Specifies the behavior of the installed help.

### Extended tips

Displays a help text when you rest the cursor on an icon, a menu command, or a control on a dialog.

## Document status

### Printing sets "document modified" status

Specifies whether the printing of the document counts as a modification. When this option is marked, the very next time the document is closed you are asked if the changes should be saved. The print date is then entered in the document properties as a change.

## Year (two digits)

Defines a date range, within which the system recognizes a two-digit year.

In LibreOfficeDev, years are indicated by four digits, so that the difference between 1/1/99 and 1/1/01 is two years. This Year (two digits) setting allows the user to define the years in which two-digit dates are added to 2000. To illustrate, if you specify a date of 1930 or later, the entry "1/1/20" is recognized as 2020-01-01 instead of 1920-01-01.

## Help Improve LibreOfficeDev

### Prompt for sending crash reports to The Document Foundation

Asks you whether to send a crash report to help developers improve the software’s reliability. Whenever LibreOfficeDev crashes, you can opt to send a report containing anonymous debugging information, to help track down and eventually fix the root cause.

## LibreOfficeDev Quickstarter

### Load LibreOfficeDev during system start-up

If enabled, loads LibreOfficeDev into memory when the computer is booted, or when LibreOfficeDev is restarted. When loaded, it reduces the time for opening LibreOfficeDev. An icon is also added to the system tray. Right-click on the icon to show a menu for opening new or existing documents, and for stopping the quickstarter.

## LibreOfficeDev File Associations
