Overview of the system settings


Notifications

By clicking on the button to the left of "Play notification sound", you can decide whether notification sounds should be played or not. In the image above, the notification sounds are activated. You can play the notification sound by clicking on ▶.


Display

Maltego Evidence has two different project layouts. You can switch between the two layouts by clicking on the button to the left of "New project layout". The change only becomes active when you click on the "Save settings" button in the bottom right-hand corner of Maltego Evidence.


For beginners, we recommend using the old layout first to find all the functions more quickly. If you are already familiar with Maltego Evidence, the new layout is recommended as it focuses more on the data collected and moves some functions to the menu on the left-hand side.


Dark Mode

To change the color scheme of Maltego Evidence to dark mode, click the Dark mode button and then save the settings.


Download

By default, downloads are saved in the Downloads folder of your device in Maltego Evidence. You can make the following settings for saving downloads from Maltego Evidence:

If you want to determine the storage location yourself each time before saving a download, activate the "Always open the save dialog" switch and save the settings.


If you want to customize the default folder for downloads, activate the "Set your own folder for downloading files" button and click on "Select folder". Finally, save the settings.
