To fully configure your default.properties file you can follow this small guide.
The default.properties are located at:
In your source folder under src/main/resources/default.properties
By editing the spark.jar in your installation folder. Go to C:/Programs/Spark/lib/spark.jar and open it with any Archive-program (like 7z).
Then navigate to spark.jar/org/jivesoftware/resource/default.properties
Now you will have to open it with any text editor, modify it and save it. If you're using method b, your archive-program will ask you to repack, please do so. You can then copy this file into any other installation of Spark. You should note that spark.jar will be overwritten with a subsequent Spark upgrade and all custom settings will be lost. So one should edit spark.jar and redistribute it to all the clients after every new Spark version release.
Items crossed with red markers are Items that become invisible or disabled when setting a specific option.
