Dialog Description
Display Project Nodes As Select how you want project file types displayed on
the project tree, either as simply names, or names
with paths.
Display File Nodes As Select how you want project files displayed on the
project tree, either as simply file names, file names
with paths or as specified internally in the file.
Refresh Version Controlled Files If your project is set up to use version controlled
files (Project>Select Version Control System),
select when you want the project window refreshed
to reflect the version control status.Refresh means
asking the version control system, “Who has this file
checked out?” for each and every file. This can be
very slow, especially if you have many files in your
project.If you disable both “Refresh on application
focus” and “Auto refresh”, you will still get refreshes
after performing version control operations, and in
response to the “Refresh” command on the Project
window context menus.
