Managing solution settings
Solution settings can be accessed from scripts and are available to the LDD administrator through LMC during and after
solution deployment. A solution setting is accessed from a script by name, just like a constant or variable.
Solution settings may be global or local. The following table lists the differences between global and local solution
settings:

Solution settings are generally configured throughout the solution development process as the need arises for each
setting. To create solution settings, double

in the src\conf\ folder of the Package Explorer
list. The Solution Settings Editor appears in the Editor pane. Separate lists of local and global solution settings are shown.
To edit an existing setting, select an item in the Local Solution Settings list or Global Solution Settings list. To add a new
setting, click
New
beside the associated list. To delete the current selection, click
Remove
beside the associated list.
To change the position of the current selection in Lexmark Management Console, click
Up
or
Down
beside the associated
list.
Modify the properties of the selected or new setting using the fields on the right side of the window. While editing
properties, click
Clear
to revert to the properties last saved for the setting, or click
Save
to save the new properties.
The following table shows the properties available for each solution setting:
