Settings from `bitcoin.conf` are now displayed normally in the GUI +settings dialog, instead of in a separate warning message ("Options set in this +dialog are overridden by the configuration file: -setting=value"). And these +settings can now be edited because `settings.json` values take precedence over +`bitcoin.conf` values. |
