2.3 The Karamba3D Menu
Karamba3D integrates a menu entry into the Grasshopper menu bar.
The Karamba3D menu includes the following options:
Physical Units: Allows setting the unit system and the length unit for geometry input. When set via the menu, these settings are stored in the Grasshopper definition, overriding individual user settings upon document opening. The definition needs to be recomputed for units changes to take effect.
Show Components: this menu item opens three options:
View parametric UI: Toggles visibility of components that can be used to parametrically control how a model gets rendered.
View WIP Components: Toggles visibility of work-in-progress (WIP) components.
Set Language for Components: Selects the language for user interface text.
Settings: For modification of initial settings used in Karamba3D.. See section 2.4 for details on how user settings are organized on Karamba3D.

Show Path to File with User Settings: Shows the path to user karamba.ini settings, typically located under "%appdata%\Karamba".
