Overview
The Settings dialog provides configuration options for Apollo. It is opened from the top bar by clicking the gear icon (Settings button).
Opening Settings
Click the gear icon (Settings) in the top-bar actions cluster. The dialog opens at 720×560 px (capped at 92 vw × 88 vh on smaller screens). Close it with the × button, by pressing Escape, or by clicking outside the dialog.
The dialog has a left navigation panel with five sections: Theme, License, Peak Hours, Maintenance, and About Apollo.
Theme
Three theme options are available as selectable cards:
| Theme | Appearance |
|---|---|
| Light | Light background |
| Dark | Dark background |
| Terminal | Green-on-dark terminal palette |
Clicking a card applies the theme immediately — no save step is required.
The top-bar theme toggle switches between Light and Dark only. To select the Terminal theme, open this Settings pane.
License
This section is available in the Electron (desktop) version only. In web mode, the License pane shows a message that license management is not available.
When a valid license is present, the pane displays:
- Status — Valid (shown in green)
- Licensed to — client name
- Product — product name
- Days remaining — colour-coded: green (>30 days), amber (≤30 days), red (≤7 days)
- Modules — list of licensed modules with per-module expiry colour coding
- Expiry warnings if any module has ≤30 days remaining
Available actions: Change license · Refresh license
When no valid license is stored, the pane shows: "No valid license found. A license is required to use Apollo." with an Enter license button.
Peak Hours
Configure peak and off-peak hours for each day of the week.
These settings apply to the Apollo (Dashboard) tab only and configure Apollo's power-system analysis. They have no effect in the Bids, Databases, or WESM Files tabs.
Peak Hours changes are not saved across restarts. The Peak Hours configuration is not persisted to disk — it resets to the defaults shown below each time the application restarts.
Day order displayed: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
Each day row shows the peak range(s), an hour count, and an Edit button. Clicking Edit opens an inline editor where you add or remove time ranges (each range has a start hour and an end hour on a 0–23 scale). Multiple ranges per day are supported.
Default peak hours:
| Day | Default peak hours | Peak duration |
|---|---|---|
| Monday | 8:00 AM – 9:00 PM | 13 h |
| Tuesday | 8:00 AM – 9:00 PM | 13 h |
| Wednesday | 8:00 AM – 9:00 PM | 13 h |
| Thursday | 8:00 AM – 9:00 PM | 13 h |
| Friday | 8:00 AM – 9:00 PM | 13 h |
| Saturday | 8:00 AM – 9:00 PM | 13 h |
| Sunday | 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM | 2 h |
Maintenance
This section is available in the Electron (desktop) version only.
Clear Application Cache — Clears cached data and reloads the application. Use this if you experience display issues or unexpected behaviour. The button is labelled Clear Cache (styled as a danger/red action). While clearing, the button shows "Clearing…" and is disabled.
