+<P STYLE="font-style: normal; text-decoration: none">This section
+describes the options presented under the Advanced Tab of the
+preferences dialog.</P>
+<P><BR><BR>
+</P>
+<P><U>Full Screen</U></P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Location</B>: Selects the location
+and position of the full screen window. 'Determined by window
+manager' will leave the window placement up to the window manager.
+'Active screen' places the window on the same screen as the GQview
+main window. 'Active monitor' does the same, but limits the full
+screen window size to the monitor containing the main window. The
+remaining choices are dependent on the multiple monitor
+configuration.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Stay above other windows:</B>
+Enable this to have GQview ask the window manager to keep the full
+screen window above other windows. Note that the window manager may
+ignore the request. This option is not relevant when the full screen
+location is determined by the window manager.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Smooth image flip</B>: This option
+delays the image change in full screen until the next image is
+entirely decoded into memory, the result is a smoother transition
+between images.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Disable screen saver</B>: This
+option will execute <I>xscreensaver-command --deactivate</I> once per
+minute to avoid the screen saver from activating when GQview is
+displayed full screen.</P>
+<P><BR><BR>
+</P>
+<P STYLE="font-style: normal; font-weight: medium"><U>Delete</U></P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in; font-style: normal"><B>Confirm file
+delete</B>: Prompts for confirmation before deleting files.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in; font-style: normal"><B>Enable Delete
+key</B>: Disable this to disassociate the delete file function from
+the Delete key. This option does not effect the [Control] + D key
+sequence. May be useful in combination with &ldquo;confirm file
+delete&rdquo;, above, disabled so that accidentally hitting a single
+key will not result in deleted files.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in; font-style: normal"><B>Safe Delete</B>:
+Moves deleted files to a temporary folder, for easy retrieval of
+deleted files. Files in the temporary folder are retained until the
+maximum size is reached, at which point deleting additional files
+will result in the removal of the oldest files to reclaim the space
+needed for the new files.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 1.58in; font-style: normal"><I>Note:</I> Files
+moved to the Safe Delete folder are prefixed with a six digit number
+in the format:</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 2.36in"><I>nnnnnn_FILENAME</I></P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 1.58in; font-style: normal">This is used by
+the delete feature to distinguish which files to remove first when
+clearing space for new files. The digit counter increments with each
+deleted file.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in; font-style: normal"><B>Folder</B>: The
+location of the folder used by the Safe Delete feature.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Maximum size</B>: The size to use
+for the Safe Delete folder, in megabytes.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Clear</B> button: Removes all files
+contained in the Safe Delete folder.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>View</B> button: Changes the GQview
+main window to display the contents of the Safe Delete folder.</P>
+<P><BR><BR>
+</P>
+<P><U>Behavior</U></P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in; font-weight: medium"><B>Rectangular
+selection in icon view:</B> Enable this to change the selection
+method used when selecting multiple items in an icon view.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Descend folders in tree view</B>:
+This will allow GQview to read sub folder content to determine if it
+should display expander indicators in the folder tree view.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 1.58in"><I>Note:</I> Disable this if GQview
+wakes up auto mounted network shares, or takes too long to initially
+display the folder view.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>In place renaming</B>: When
+renaming a single file, this will allow the rename entry to appear
+directly over the original filename.</P>
+<P><BR><BR>
+</P>
+<P><U>Navigation</U></P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Progressive keyboard scrolling</B>:
+This will cause image panning speed to gradually accelerate when
+holding down the keyboard arrows.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Mouse wheel scrolls image</B>: The
+default is for the mouse wheel to change the image, and to scroll the
+image when shift is used in combination with the wheel. Enabling this
+swaps the behavior so that operating the wheel will scroll the image,
+and holding down shift will change the image.</P>
+<P><BR><BR>
+</P>
+<P><U>Miscellaneous</U></P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in; font-weight: medium"><B>Store keywords
+and comments local to source images:</B> When enabled, GQview
+attempts to store metadata such as keywords closer to the source
+image. The resulting location is the source image's folder, in a sub
+folder with the name &quot;<B>.metadata&quot;</B>. When the image
+source folder cannot be written, GQview falls back to saving the
+medata in &quot;$HOME/.gqview/metadata&quot;.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Custom similarity threshold</B>:
+This setting is used by the compare method &ldquo;similarity
+(custom)&rdquo;, located in the Find Duplicates window.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in"><B>Offscreen cache size</B>: GQview
+only renders the visible portion of an image. To reduce rendering the
+same area frequently when panning an image, some memory is used to
+retain the recently rendered image data. This value controls the
+maximum amount of memory to use.</P>
+<P STYLE="margin-left: 1.58in"><I>Note:</I> This setting controls the
+amount of memory<SPAN STYLE="text-decoration: none"> for <U>each</U>
+image window.</SPAN></P>
