Installing Custom Interface Settings Settings that change the interface in some way (including macro interface files) are usually located in: /include/startup/ui These also have a .h file extension, for example: /Users/my_account/nreal/include/startup/ui/slider_settings.h This is referred to as the ui directory or sometimes startup/ui directory. Files inside it are referred to as ui .h files. Files that change additional default settings or add extra controls are in the templates directory, which is always within a ui directory: /Users/me/nreal/include/startup/ui/templates/defaultfilter.h Installing Custom Icons Just as you can create preference files, you can create your own icons. The description of the actual icons can be found in "Using the Alternative Icons" on page 375. Icons can be found in one of three locations: • /Contents/Resources/icons (/icons on non MacOS): a directory, not to be confused with the important icons.pak file) • $HOME/nreal/icons • In any directory pointed to by $NR_ICON_PATH, set the same way $NR_INCLUDE_PATH is set Preference File Load Order Within a startup or startup/ui directory, files are loaded in no specific order. If it is important that a file is loaded before another file, this can be accomplished in a variety of ways. To explicitly control preference file load order, do one of the following: m Add an include statement at the beginning of the file. For example, if macros.h relies on common.h being loaded before, start macros.h with: #include m Put all the files you want to load in a directory (for example include/myprefs) and create a .h file in startup that contains only include statements: #include #include #include Include files are never loaded twice, so it is okay if two .h files contain the same #include statement. 358 Chapter 14 Customizing Shake
