Option to turn off the 'Translate ASCII' toggle for projects

Question & Answer


Question

How do you turn off the 'Translate ASCII' toggle for projects by default?

Answer

By default the "Translate ASCII files" is set to TRUE.

However, as this is inherited, it can be set this at the project level and see it maintained downwards for each copy or version.

This is a database attribute and once changed, it will affect all the users.
The attribute can be set it on the first version of the project and it will be inherited by all subsequent versions. This attribute can be set from the command line as follows:

  • ccm query -t project -n name -v version
  • ccm attr -s file_translation @1


By default it is set to TRUE.
Set it to FALSE by running the following command:
  • ccm attr -m file_translation -v FALSE @1


This will turn off 'Translate ASCII' toggle for projects.
