Hi Leonard.

First, thanks for your time! That's really great.

I already saw those methods like
AVAppGetPrefence, AVGetPrefText, AVGetPrefAtom, .... and AVAppSetPreference,
but then i�m stuck at
AVPrefsType, or parameters like const char* section and const char* key.

Sure i can image what they are there for, but nowhere in the documentation is written, what values you can fill in. And Google doesn't help (what surprise!). I also saw another thread (keyword: "worst documentation ever" ), where you gave advise with AVAppSetPreference(PDLayoutSinglePage, 0); .
Is there maybe new information about those parameter? It's just this "small" aspect, which prevent me from the next step to finish the tool. That�s kind of ... no that is frustrating.

Am i right, if the settings aren�t bound to the tool itself, does acrobat set the preferences everytime you selct a different tool? Since you can set different default values for e.g. color for e.g. polyline and pencil, they alter the preferences within the application, whenever you select the next tool? They set the color in the properties bar, too.

The only thing i�m still arfraid of, is that i maybe will not be able to change the status upfront. I heard some rumors.

Thanks again..
Alex
