Topic: profile.xml Question

I noticed that in the example profile.xml file from the wiki, the:

<mode time="30" mode="timeout"/>

Occurs both in the <widget> and <widget instance> nodes. Is this redundant or are both necessary ? Does one override the other ?

Thanks for any clarification !

Re: profile.xml Question

The one in the widget instance (the user's value) overrides the one in the widget (the author's value).  If the widget instance specifies "default", then the widget timing is used.  If the widget is also set to "default", then the Control Panel uses a value of 30 seconds.

Re: profile.xml Question

What other modes are possible? Especially I need the correct mode for if it should never change automatically. (At the moment I set the time to a very big value.)
