# Configure TruClient General Settings

The General Settings dialog box enables you to set options that affect the browser as you record and develop your scripts.

All settings you define in the TruClient General Settings dialog box are applied globally to all TruClient - Web scripts. You only need to configure these settings once. All subsequently created scripts automatically inherit these settings, even after you close VuGen.

The General Settings dialog box is opened by clicking the General Settings button in the TruClient Development window.

The following options are available, depending on script type:

Tab | Description
--- | ---
Browser Settings | This tab enables you to configure settings for the TruClient browser for scripts that you run in interactive mode (the script development stage). Note: Settings that you modify in the Browsing Settings tab affect interactive mode only and apply to all TruClient scripts. When you save your script in interactive mode, any settings that you modified in the Browsing Settings tab are applied to the Load Mode Browser settings. If you select Use Manual proxy server for your LAN and specify Do not use proxy server for addresses beginning with, see the rules on blocking addresses below. The Check for newer versions of stored pages setting is not supported on Chromium browsers.

Snapshot generation. Generates replay snapshots. For details, see Snapshots. Steps generation Default identification method.

Creates alternative steps when there are multiple ways to perform the same action in a step. For details, see Use alternative steps. Create level 2 or level 3 steps during recording. Creates steps for levels 2 and 3 during script recording. If cleared, TruClient records only level 1 steps. For details on levels, see Modify and view script and step levels.

### Rules for blocking addresses when using a proxy server

To block a... | put this into "No Proxy for" | ...for example, use | Limitations
--- | --- | --- | ---
domain, including sub-domains | domain suffix, starting with a dot | ".mycom.org; mycom.org" | You must use both entries to block a single domain.
hostname (with domain) | domain suffix, starting with a dot | "www.mycom.org" | Also blocks any hostnames or domains that end in the same string (other-www.myco.org)
IP address | IP address | "1.2.3.4" | Does not block hostnames that resolve to the IP address ("127.0.0.1" does not block "localhost")
Network | network w/ CIDR block | "10.0.0.0/8" | Does not block hostnames that resolve to the IP address range (10.0.0.0/8 is not "no proxy for intranet hostnames")
