the <span class="guimenu">GUI configuration</span> entry in the
<span class="guimenu">Preferences</span> menu.</p><p>There are several tabs in the dialog, dealing with the
interface itself, the parameters used for searching and
returning results, and what indexes are searched.</p><p><a id="RCL.SEARCH.GUI.CUSTOM.UI"></a><strong>User interface parameters:��</strong>
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Highlight color for query
terms</span>: Terms from the user query are highlighted in
the result list samples and the preview window. The color can
be chosen here. Any Qt color string should work (ie
<code class="literal">red</code>, <code class="literal">#ff0000</code>). The
default is <code class="literal">blue</code>.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Style sheet</span>:
The name of a <span class="application">Qt</span> style sheet
text file which is applied to the whole Recoll application
on startup. The default value is empty, but there is a
skeleton style sheet (<code class="filename">recoll.qss</code>)
inside the <code class="filename">/usr/share/recoll/examples</code>
directory. Using a style sheet, you can change most
<span class="command"><strong>recoll</strong></span> graphical parameters:
colors, fonts, etc. See the sample file for a few
simple examples.</p><p>You should be aware that parameters (e.g.: the
background color) set inside the <span class="application">Recoll</span> GUI style sheet
will override global system preferences, with possible
strange side effects: for example if you set the
foreground to a light color and the background to a
dark one in the desktop preferences, but only the
background is set inside the <span class="application">Recoll</span> style sheet, and it
is light too, then text will appear light-on-light
inside the <span class="application">Recoll</span> GUI.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Maximum text size highlighted for
preview</span> Inserting highlights on search term inside
the text before inserting it in the preview window involves
quite a lot of processing, and can be disabled over the given
text size to speed up loading.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Prefer HTML to plain text for
preview</span> if set, Recoll will display HTML as such
inside the preview window. If this causes problems with the Qt
HTML display, you can uncheck it to display the plain text
version instead. </p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Plain text to HTML line style</span>:
when displaying plain text inside the preview window, <span class="application">Recoll</span>
tries to preserve some of the original text line breaks and
indentation. It can either use PRE HTML tags, which will
well preserve the indentation but will force horizontal
scrolling for long lines, or use BR tags to break at the
original line breaks, which will let the editor introduce
other line breaks according to the window width, but will
lose some of the original indentation. The third option has
been available in recent releases and is probably now the best
one: use PRE tags with line wrapping.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Choose editor
applicationsr</span>: this opens a dialog which allows you
to select the application to be used to open each MIME
type. The default is nornally to use the
<span class="command"><strong>xdg-open</strong></span> utility, but you can override it.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Exceptions</span>: even wen
<span class="command"><strong>xdg-open</strong></span> is used by default for opening
documents, you can set exceptions for MIME types that will
still be opened according to <span class="application">Recoll</span> preferences. This is useful
for passing parameters like page numbers or search strings to
applications that support them
(e.g. <span class="application">evince</span>). This cannot be done
with <span class="command"><strong>xdg-open</strong></span> which only supports passing
one parameter.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Document filter choice
style</span>: this will let you choose if the document
categories are displayed as a list or a set of buttons, or a
menu.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Start with simple search
mode</span>: this lets you choose the value of the simple
search type on program startup. Either a fixed value
(e.g. <code class="literal">Query Language</code>, or the value in use
when the program last exited.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Auto-start simple search on white
space entry</span>: if this is checked, a search will be
executed each time you enter a space in the simple search input
field. This lets you look at the result list as you enter new
terms. This is off by default, you may like it or not...</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Start with advanced search dialog open
</span>: If you use this dialog frequently, checking
the entries will get it to open when recoll starts.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Remember sort activation
state</span> if set, Recoll will remember the sort tool
stat between invocations. It normally starts with sorting
disabled.</p></li></ul></div><p>
</p><p><a id="RCL.SEARCH.GUI.CUSTOM.RL"></a><strong>Result list parameters:��</strong>
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Number of results in a result
page</span></p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Result list font</span>: There is
quite a lot of information shown in the result list, and you
may want to customize the font and/or font size. The rest of
the fonts used by <span class="application">Recoll</span> are determined by your generic Qt
config (try the <span class="command"><strong>qtconfig</strong></span> command).</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><a id="RCL.SEARCH.GUI.CUSTOM.RESULTPARA"></a><span class="guilabel">Edit result list paragraph format string</span>:
allows you to change the presentation of each result list
entry. See the <a class="link" href="RCL.SEARCH.GUI.CUSTOM.RESLIST.html" title="The result list format">
result list customisation section</a>.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><a id="RCL.SEARCH.GUI.CUSTOM.RESULTHEAD"></a><span class="guilabel">Edit result page HTML header insert</span>:
allows you to define text inserted at the end of the result
page HTML header.
More detail in the <a class="link" href="RCL.SEARCH.GUI.CUSTOM.RESLIST.html" title="The result list format">
result list customisation section.</a></p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Date format</span>: allows specifying the
format used for displaying dates inside the result list. This
should be specified as an strftime() string (man strftime).</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><a id="RCL.SEARCH.GUI.CUSTOM.ABSSEP"></a><span class="guilabel">Abstract snippet separator</span>:
for synthetic abstracts built from index data, which are
usually made of several snippets from different parts of the
document, this defines the snippet separator, an ellipsis by
default. </p></li></ul></div><p><a id="RCL.SEARCH.GUI.CUSTOM.SEARCH"></a><strong>Search parameters:��</strong>
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Hide duplicate results</span>:
decides if result list entries are shown for identical
documents found in different places.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Stemming language</span>:
stemming obviously depends on the document's language. This
listbox will let you chose among the stemming databases which
were built during indexing (this is set in the <a class="link" href="RCL.INSTALL.CONFIG.RECOLLCONF.html" title="The main configuration file, recoll.conf">main configuration
file</a>), or later added with <span class="command"><strong>recollindex
-s</strong></span> (See the recollindex manual). Stemming languages
which are dynamically added will be deleted at the next
indexing pass unless they are also added in the configuration
file.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Automatically add phrase to simple
searches</span>: a phrase will be automatically built and
added to simple searches when looking for <code class="literal">Any
terms</code>. This will give a relevance boost to the
results where the search terms appear as a phrase (consecutive
and in order).</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Autophrase term frequency threshold
percentage</span>: very frequent terms should not be included
in automatic phrase searches for performance reasons. The
parameter defines the cutoff percentage (percentage of the
documents where the term appears).</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Replace abstracts from
documents</span>: this decides if we should synthesize and
display an abstract in place of an explicit abstract found
within the document itself.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Dynamically build
abstracts</span>: this decides if <span class="application">Recoll</span> tries to build
document abstracts (lists of <span class="emphasis"><em>snippets</em></span>)
when displaying the result list. Abstracts are constructed by
taking context from the document information, around the search
terms.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Synthetic abstract size</span>:
adjust to taste...</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Synthetic abstract context
words</span>: how many words should be displayed around
each term occurrence.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p><span class="guilabel">Query language magic file name
suffixes</span>: a list of words which automatically get
turned into <code class="literal">ext:xxx</code> file name suffix clauses
when starting a query language query (ie: <code class="literal">doc xls
xlsx...</code>). This will save some typing for people who
use file types a lot when querying.</p></li></ul></div><p>
</p><p><a id="RCL.SEARCH.GUI.CUSTOM.EXTRADB"></a><strong>External indexes:��</strong>This panel will let you browse for additional indexes
that you may want to search. External indexes are designated by
their database directory (ie:
<code class="filename">/home/someothergui/.recoll/xapiandb</code>,
<code class="filename">/usr/local/recollglobal/xapiandb</code>).</p><p>Once entered, the indexes will appear in the
<span class="guilabel">External indexes</span> list, and you can
chose which ones you want to use at any moment by checking or
unchecking their entries.</p><p>Your main database (the one the current configuration
indexes to), is always implicitly active. If this is not
desirable, you can set up your configuration so that it indexes,
for example, an empty directory. An alternative indexer may also
need to implement a way of purging the index from stale data,
