#ShowSettingsButton

##About

Gets or sets the value enabling the Settings button on the Izenda Reports toolbar. The settings button launches the settings page, which allows for a GUI-oriented interface for modifying various common settings. However, we highly recommend using the InitializeReporting() method to perform your initialization.

_Note: This setting replaced ShowAdminButton and should be used instead.
