Accessing Option Dialog Boxes
Several menus also include a small box icon to the right of the menu, also shown in Figure 1-2. These box icons
will open an Options dialog box for the selected command. These Options dialog boxes, such as the Group
Options dialog box shown in Figure 1-3, include parameters that you can change. They also include Apply
buttons that let you apply the command with the given parameters without closing the dialog box. The option
dialog box values are persistent. Any values that are changed will maintain their setting the next time the
command is used. You can reset an options dialog box to its default values using the Edit, Reset Settings menu
command in the dialog box menu.
