Configuring plugins

After opening the Preferences Dialog, you will find a list of all available plugins, with corresponding checkboxes, under the "Plugins" tab. To enable or disable a plugin, toggle its checkbox. Only active plugins can be accessed via Accerciser's interface.

Right-clicking on any given plugin allows you to choose its location: "Top Panel", "Bottom Panel", and "New View". Selecting "New View" creates a new window for the plugin.

The hotkey combination for each functionality can be changed via the Preferences dialog, under the "Global Hotkeys" tab. Under this tab, you will find a list of all features for which hotkeys can be configured. Use the ctrl, alt, and shift checkboxes to enable or disable these modifiers.
