Developer options
In this section there are options to change the behaviour of the system. Changing these options is recommended only if necessary.
Defragmentation
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Defragment every X days | Allows to set the number of days to pass until the app needs to defragment again. |
Every once in a while during synchronization, you will see the following progress icon appear:
This is the automatic defragmentation process. Whenever you add/update or delete data in iCL Filler, the local database gets updated and as time passes by, it will fragment. This means that the data is not stored in a contiguous block of memory, but rather in multiple blocks. This is not a problem per se, but it can lead to performance issues, especially when the database gets bigger and bigger. For that reason, the app provides an automatic defragmentation (or Vacuum) process, which will be executed every 7 days by default.
Background sync (iOS only)
You can see when the background sync successfully completed the last time and trigger it manually.
The switch enables or disables the notifications from background syncs.
We recommend setting the background fetch interval in the iOS Settings to achieve maximum performance from the background sync. To do so, please open the iOS Settings and execute the following 3 steps.
| Step 1. Passwords & Accounts | Step 2. Fetch New Data | Step 3. Fetch interval: Hourly |
|---|---|---|

UWP Language
In the settings of iCL Filler you can adjust regional settings.
Language for inspections
You can set the language preference in the setting 'Standard language for inspections'. By default, it is set to Device language, but can be set to any other language.
This feature requires the workbook to inherit a translation for the chosen language.
Language for iCL Filler
At the moment, we support the languages English, French and German for the iCL Filler surface. You can select it from the 'Regional format' setting.
This setting also influences date- and number formatting.
UWP Light/Dark theme
The iCL Filler on UWP will adapt the windows settings of the current device to set light- or darkmode accordingly.
If you use iCL Filler on Android and iOS with the same user account, the settings will get carried over to UWP.
This may cause visual conflicts on UWP, but you can reset UWP to default settings via the windows app manager. Keep in mind, that you may loose unsynchronized progress when doing so.
