## Dialog Windows

The dialog windows invoked by CGNSview are briefly described below.

### File Info

### Auto Data Size

The size in bytes and max data values per line in the Node Data window may be specified. The Accept button will accept the new values, Cancel will cancel the changes and Default will restore the default values.

### Find

The search supports standard grep-type matching. If the Match Case button is enabled, then a case-sensitive search is done, otherwise the search is case-insensitive. The Find button will search for the next match, and highlight the entry. If the Start from Root button is enabled, the search will start from the top of the tree, otherwise it will start from the current location. The Cancel button closes the dialog.

The Verbose Output button enables more detailed output and the Show Errors will output the error information. The level of warning messages is controlled by the Warning Level setting - 0 for no warnings, and 3 for all. The Accept button runs the check and Cancel will cancel and close the window.
