Universal Options for File Windows

Info Balloons

 

Display

Master switch that turns the display of the Info Balloons on and off. If this box is not checked no Info Balloons will be displayed.

Restrict To

Specifies specific conditions that must be met before an Info Balloon is displayed.

Shift Key        The Shift key must be pressed in order for an Info Balloon to be displayed.

Control Key        The Ctrl key must be pressed in order for an Info Balloon to be displayed.

First Column        Info Balloons will only be displayed when the cursor is over the first column in the contents view. By default this box is checked to prevent info balloons always popping up to the annoyance of all.

Note: All three of these options can be used alone or in combination with each other.

Show What

Lists the various file attributes that can be displayed in an Info Balloon. Check the items you want displayed.

Miscellaneous Options for the Content Window

 

Sticky Selections

When checked Sticky Selection Mode is active. Sticky Selection Mode allows you to click on an entry in the Contents View to select it without de-selecting other entries. Sticky Select acts much like holding down the Ctrl key while clicking entries in Windows Explorer.

Note: When Sticky Select Mode is active you can click normally by holding down the Ctrl key.

And Sticky selection mode can also be turned off and on from the right-click menu.

Display File Size in K

Displays file sizes in kilobytes rather than in bytes. When active all sizes are rounded up to the nearest kilobyte and a K is displayed after the size.

Reset Default Columns and Window Colors

 

Reset All Window Colors

Resets all background and text colors for the Explorer and Virtual Folders to their defaults. This is simply a quick way of resetting all rather than selecting the colors for each type of window individually.
