How to set "Get the information from the Active Directory"

Hi there,
I need to set the flag "Get the information from the Active Directory" (Edit -> Preferences -> Identity) by code to be able to get the identity's Name used in stamps set by
Code: Select all
Editor.Inst.Settings["Identity.Name"].v = "My Name";
I tried to set
Code: Select all
Editor.Inst.Settings["Identity.AlwaysUseLoginName"].v = false;
but it does not work.
And yes, I call
Code: Select all
Editor.Inst.FireAppPrefsChanged(PXV_AppPrefsChanges.PXV_AppPrefsChange_Identity);
It seems that the editor himself does not use this flag set by code.
The setting in the editors preferences overwrites the flag.
The version of PDFXChange Edit Core API is 9.0.352.0
How can I set this flag?
Or has the name of the flag changed?
Best regards
cew

Hello cew,
Also, to enable that setting use the
Code: Select all
Editor.Inst.Settings["Identity.GetFromAD"].v = true;
Cheers,
Alex

Hi Alex,
got it to work, thank you very much!
Btw: Where do I find a documentation about the available settings and the keys like "Identity.GetFromAD"?
Regards

Hello cew,
There is no documentation available for these. Basically to check the needed flag, open the registry of the End-User Editor:
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Tracker Software\PDFXEditor\3.0\Settings
Then, when changing some settings and closing the Editor, you will see the changes made to the registry in the correspondent group. I'm afraid that is the only way.
Cheers,
Alex

Seriously?
Me too
Nonetheless, this approach is better than no way to get to the settings at all.
Thank you!

Now I understand what "Tracker" in
Tracker-Software stands for:
It's "
Registry-Tracker"
