There are two ways to change BlueJ configuration settings:
- To change user options, with the application open, select BlueJ from the menu bar, then Preferences.... You can alter settings in this dialog box.
- To change administrator options, open the file located at: BLUEJ_HOME/lib/bluej.defs. If on a Mac, right-click the BlueJ application, select Show Package Contents, then Contents, then Resources, then Java. You should then see the bluej.defs file and other DEFS files.
