Settings

Every settings tab, its controls, and their defaults

The settings window is app-wide: a value on any of these eleven tabs holds for every connection you open. Cmd+, opens it; what belongs to one connection is in that connection’s form instead.

The settings window

General

Language, startup, tabs, sidebar, query timeout, updates, reset.

Appearance

Three tabs are not in the table. Stock keyboard chords are on Keyboard Shortcuts, and neither the Plugins nor the License tab holds a value of its own.

Where settings live

The file is ~/Library/Preferences/com.TablePro.plist. Reset All Settings to Defaults on the General tab puts every tab back to its stock value after a confirmation, and that includes emptying the AI provider list. Saved connections, query history, and MCP tokens survive it.

Two settings have no control in the window:

Setting	Command
Custom plugin registry	defaults write com.TablePro com.TablePro.customRegistryURL <url>
Clear custom registry	defaults delete com.TablePro com.TablePro.customRegistryURL

See Plugin Registry for what a private registry has to serve.
