Use Old-style file dialogs
There are bugs in Java's AWT and Swing file dialogs. If you are experiencing difficulty with load/save dialogs, try altering this setting.

Use Pronto font in tree view
The Pronto font contains special glyph characters that can be used in Device and Panel names. This option must be enabled to see these names properly. It is disabled by default on older Sun JVM's because of a font rendering bug.

Show Device Properties in Tree
This enables a clickable properties icon in the Device tree view. When this is disabled, you must right-click a device or use ALT-P to edit a device's properties.

Center dialogs on parent
Most dialogs will remember their size and position. When this is checked, the dialog will be automatically centered over the dialog or frame last opened.

Show extended colors
Color Pronto's support a palette of 256 colors. By default ProntoEdit and Touch Screen Setup only allow the use of the first 215 colors even though the remote can use all 256.

Use remote reported capability
Enable this to have Tonto auto-convert a CCF to the capabilities of the Remote. Will not work with Marantz.

Emit IR during button test
When using ALT-SHIFT-Click to simulate button presses in the editor, this controls whether or not IR is actually emitted from an attached remote.

Enable network updates
When enabled, Tonto will periodically check to see if a new version is available.

Log to Console
When enabled and Tonto is launched from the command-line, it will emit the log information to the console.

Paint selection on top
When enabled, the red selection squares will be painted last. This allows the entire selection to be seen for buried objects. However, this causes painting components to take longer and may cause undesirable delays.
