Limit Queries to

This option allows you to limit the number of rows returned for a single history or label query. The number must be greater than 0.

This limit exists because the user interface will reach a limit to how many rows of text it can display at one time. This option will ensure that the user interface will always be able to handle the query sent by the server, even if the user accidentally created a query that was not intended and retrieved far more rows than the interface can handle.

The default is 1000 and there is an upper limit of 10,000.

Fetch rows in chunks of

History and label entries are fetched in chunks so you need not wait for all the data to be transferred before viewing the results. As you scroll to areas where data has not been fetched, the History Explorer and the labels dialog will automatically fetch the rows needed.

This option allows you to configure how many rows to fetch at a time.

The default is 200 rows.

Act on queries recursively

This option sets the default for whether a history or a label query will be recursive or not.

The default is Checked.
