Customizing the Edit Mode ========================= Customizing the number of candidates retrieved for references in the Edit Mode ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ To prevent the retrieval of huge numbers of entities just to create candidates for the drop down of a reference during editing of an Entity, the number of candidates can be limited. Set the ``BUILD_MAX_EDIT_MODE_DROPDOWN_OPTIONS`` build variable. -1 means no limit; every other number is the limit for each query sent (The number of candidates can be at most twice this number).
