FluenceXL Excel Edition keeps all of its settings in a configuration file stored in the user's Application Data folder. This can be found here:
%appdata%\XLCubed Ltd\XLCubed Excel Edition\settings.xml
For a typical Windows installation, this will translate to:
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\XLCubed Ltd\XLCubed Excel Edition\settings.xml
In order to customise the file for distribution to other users, you can open the FluenceXL add-in in Excel and change any settings that you desire, for example:
- Grid defaults
- Connections
- Favourite Grids
- FluenceXL Web server addresses
- FluenceXL Options
When you close Excel, the file will be updated, and can then be sent to other users, or including in a custom installation script.
Admin controlled
From Version 10.0.149 there are two additional files that can be added to the FluenceXL installation folder (C:/Program Files (x86)/FluenceXL Ltd/FluenceXL):
- defaults.xml - will setup the default settings, the user can override them
- settings.xml - will force these settings, users can not change them
The format of the file is the same as the %appdata% version, you only need to include the settings you want to change/set. This is particularly important for the forced settings; only include those settings that you want to force onto the users.
