Chapter 3. Preferences Dialog

It uses a structured configuration dialog which makes it very easy to find every option without extensive search.

Just click on the question mark on the title bar and, after the cursor changed like an arrow with a question mark, click on buttons, labels, entries to obtain more info on the specified item.
