h1. Options Dialog

AdiIRC has a lot of options which can be confusing, however the defaults are good enough in most cases.

It can be opened by pressing the %(key)ALT% + %(key)O% hotkey, by typing [[/options]] or by opening File -> Options in the [[Menubar_Control|Menubar]]. 

Most options are saved to the [[Config_Files|config.ini]] file which can be found by typing [[/paths]] -o or from [[Menubar_Control|Menubar]] -> Tools -> Config Files.

_See also [[/options]], [[/setoption]]._

h2. Search options

You can narrow down the option you want by typing in the Searchbox at the top left corner, it will mark the matches with a red rectangle.

_For performance reasons, only text/labels and group labels are searchable, dropdown/list items are not searched._

Example search for "Spacing":
