Volume

Currently, the only audio output from Tobe Builder comes from the car interactive mode.

Mute - Disables all audio in Tobe Builder.

Volume Level - Adjusts the overall audio level of Tobe Builder.

Screen

Full Screen - Enables exclusive full-screen mode. Changing the resolution dropdown updates the screen’s horizontal and vertical resolution as well as the desired refresh rate. Tabbing out of Tobe Builder in this mode may cause brief interruptions.

Windowed Full Screen - Recommended mode for Tobe Builder. Runs the application in a borderless window that fills the screen. Changing the resolution dropdown updates only the horizontal and vertical resolution; refresh rate is ignored. This mode is ideal when frequently alt-tabbing or when using external overlay software.

Windowed - Runs Tobe Builder in a standard window. Changing the resolution dropdown updates the window’s horizontal and vertical resolution; refresh rate is ignored. This mode is recommended when sharing screen space with other applications. Resizing the window manually will not update the resolution dropdown, which can be used to restore a specific resolution.

Resolution - Sets the display resolution based on supported resolutions and refresh rates. Behaviour may vary depending on whether Full Screen, Windowed Full Screen, or Windowed mode is selected.

UI Scale - Adjusts the global UI scaling. 100% is recommended for most setups, though larger displays may benefit from higher values.

Theme - Toggles between light and dark mode. Dark mode is the default.

Virtual Keyboard

Virtual Keyboard - Enables the Windows On-Screen Keyboard (OSK), recommended when using Tobe Builder exclusively with a touchscreen. Enabling this option forces the application into Windowed Full Screen or Windowed mode to ensure uninterrupted OSK interaction. The OSK appears when selecting any text input field.

Data

Removes all locally cached Tobe Builder data. Selecting this option displays a popup listing specific folders and data types that can be cleared. Useful for resetting preferences or reclaiming disk space.
