    Show delimiter strip after

    Select this checkbox to use vertical line to indicate the preferable length for the row (in characters).

    Default language

    Select the default language to use for syntax highlighting if the file does not have a connection or a known extension.

    Note: This option applies only when opening a file in a new Editor window. If a file with an unknown extension is already open in an Editor and you select a default language, the language is not applied to the open file.   

    Default: SQL

    File encoding type

    Select the default type of encoding to use when saving files.

    Note: You can manually change the encoding type for an individual file by right-clicking the Editor window and selecting Character Encoding

    Use individual connection for each open editor

    Select this checkbox to create a separate database connection for each Editor (the first time you execute a statement) and a separate database connection for each Data tab in the Database Explorer (the first time you select the tab and data is queried). The database connection for each Editor and Data tab remain open until you close the associated window; however, the connections remain in an inactive state if a statement is not currently executing.  

    If cleared, all open Editors and Data tabs share the same database connection when the connection is inactive. Understand Toad Connections
