Switch to turn on custom formatting files or to turn it of completely.

• true - apply custom formatting (generic, database level, table level)
• false - switch of all custom formatting

Root folder of custom format files - this path is relative to the client root folder.

Switch to toggle if formatter files are allocated by the name of the catalog object or not.

• true - format objects by names is active

CUSTOM_FORMAT_FOLDER + / + FORMATFOLDER_SUBFOLDER_CONNECTION folder is the root of the formatter files. Connection subfolders are mandatory!!! This folder is also root folder for the database formatter files (arranged by connection)!!! The simple table name is the name of the formatter file e.g. for table dbo.T_CURRENCY the formatter file is T_CURRENCY.php

• false - format objects by catalog ID is active

CUSTOM_FORMAT_FOLDER + / + FORMATFOLDER_SUBFOLDER_CATALOG_ID folder is the root of the formatter files. The catalog id of an object is the name of the formatter file. E.g. for table dbo.T_CURRENCY the formatter file could be 202.php

Subfolder of CUSTOM_FORMAT_FOLDER where generic format files are located

Subfolder of CUSTOM_FORMAT_FOLDER where format files are located when formatter files are named like the catalog id. (if CUSTOM_FORMATTING_BY_CATALOG_NAME = false)

Subfolder of CUSTOM_FORMAT_FOLDER for menu item images and own icons and background images

Subfolder of CUSTOM_FORMAT_FOLDER for format folders on connectionlevel (if CUSTOM_FORMATTING_BY_CATALOG_NAME = true)

Format file name in folder CUSTOM_FORMAT_SUBFOLDER_GENERAL as overall format file. Applied always as first formatter

* ''true'' - on tablename level or/and catalog id level a formatter file with a language code of the activated language is applied as well

e.g. T_CURRENCY_en.php or 202_en.php
