16    <h1>Common Settings (For Application Programmers)</h1>
17    <!-- InstanceEndEditable --> <!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="本文" -->
18    <p>This section describes common settings that involve configuration of item settings for particles.</p>
19    <p>These settings are items of interest to application programmers.</p>
20    <h2>Enable</h2>
21    <p>The checkbox for Enable is marked by default.</p>
22    <img src="assets/particle_common_setting.png" alt="Enables the common features."/>
23    <p>Features are disabled (i.e., the Enable checkbox is cleared) so the programmer has control over features and initial values. So even if a designer is not using a feature, it may be applied to the actual data being exported.</p>
24    <p>For example, say that the gravity values A, B and C are attached to a set of data, and A is enabled while B and C are disabled. The programmer might be using value A for the initial state of gravity, planning to switch the state later from A to B to C.</p>
25    <h2>Copy Resource</h2>
26    <p>The checkbox for Copy Resource is cleared by default.</p>
27    <img src="assets/particle_common_setting_01.png" alt="Common feature: Copy resources at runtime"/>
28    <p>When  the checkbox is marked, features are copied as resources when the data are exported.<br /> The application programmer can change the parameters of these copied features to make different variations.</p>
29    <p>For example, say that at game development time the programmer has created multiple copies of the same particle data. If <B>Copy Resource </B>is off, then the parameters of the feature will all change together. But if <B>Copy Resource </B>is on, then the parameters of the feature can be changed individually.</p>
30    <h2>Optimize (Always ON)</h2>
31    <p>At the current time, this setting can only be configured as a Color settings option in the particle Properties panel.</p>
32    <p>When this is enabled, which is the default setting, data are optimized when created to lighten the memory load.</p>
33    <img src="assets/particle_common_setting_02.png" alt="Common feature: Copy resources at runtime"/>
34    <p class="hint_warn">Caution:<br /> The programmer cannot control optimized data.<br /> If you want to have control over the data for a feature on the programmer side, clear the <B>Optimize </B> checkbox for that feature.</p>
