Re: [cdt-dev] default Number Format in variables view

[Derek Morris <dmsubs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry, no that is not what I want.

I want to be able to display Hex (or whatever else) as the default. I do not want to have to change the NUmber Format for every new project (Launch Config?) I create. Persistence is helpful, but I don't want to have to change it - I want the DEFAULT to be what I choose, not what CDT chooses..

Many years ago, in CDI debug, the preference mentioned in my original email worked, but now there seems to be no way to display as Hex by default.

I am happy to write code to do this, I just need to know if it is at all possible.

Thanks
