| There are a couple of constraints on what is allowed to be entered for some of these parameters: if you set the small art threshold higher than the large art one, for example, then Niente will silently reverse the two numbers so that they make logical sense. It would not be sensible to regard a piece of artwork as too small if it's more than 3000 pixels big, but too large if it's more than 500 pixels, for example! But "too small at 500, too big at 3000" makes much more sense. | There are a couple of constraints on what is allowed to be entered for some of these parameters: if you set the small art threshold higher than the large art one, for example, then Niente will silently reverse the two numbers so that they make logical sense.

| - | Similarly, Niente won't let you enter a pixel size for the font used to generate reports that is smaller than 6 -because then the reports would be illegible. You can't set the font size to 48 (pt) either, because then the report would be so large it would also be illegible! So Niente will check this parameter value for you and reset to the default value of ' | ||
| Probably the two most crucial parameters are the default database name and music folder: these determine what database Niente opens by default as it is launched, and where it will go to scan for new music files. If you leave these two values blank, you'll be prompted to supply suitable values every time you launch Niente, which becomes quite tedious really fast! What you type here, however, has to exist for the parameters to be meaningful: if you say your default database is called " | Probably the two most crucial parameters are the default database name and music folder: these determine what database Niente opens by default as it is launched, and where it will go to scan for new music files.
