Dialog Box Options

- When an item in the panel is focused, the entire item is highlighted. In detailed mode, all item columns are highlighted. In brief mode, the entire item column width is highlighted. The highlighted part of the item is sensitive to mouse operations. When this check box is cleared, only the item name is highlighted and sensitive to mouse operations.

- When an item in the panel is focused, the entire item is highlighted. But only the item name is sensitive to mouse operations.
- Single-click to open an item (point to select)
- Specifies that you want to open items by single-clicking them, just as you would click a link on a Web page. To select an item without opening it, rest your pointer on it.
- Show icon tincture in the panel (system/hidden/selected/focused items)
- Specifies whether an item's icon in the panel should be colored for special states of the item (such as system/hidden/selected/focused items). This makes colored items easier to distinguish from normal items.
