PopSet Properties Dialog

Used to control the positioning and display frequency of the Tool Settings window while PopSet is enabled. Opens when Properties is chosen from the PopSet icon's right-click pop-up menu.



SettingDescription
Auto-Position Tool Settings If PopSet is enabled and this setting is on, the Tool Settings window is automatically positioned near the selected tool icon.

If PopSet is enabled and this setting is off, the Tool Settings window does not display unless you position the pointer over the PopSet icon or press <Ctrl+Spacebar>.

Allow Ctrl+Space When Disabled If PopSet is disabled and this setting is on, you can press <Ctrl+Spacebar> to make the Tool Settings window appear under the position of the pointer.
New Tool Delay (seconds) Sets the time, in seconds, before the Tool Settings window is hidden upon selection of a tool. The default is 0.75 seconds.

Once the Tool Settings window is given the focus or usage of the tool begins, the Hide Delay setting, rather than New Tool Delay, determines the length of the delay.

Hide Delay (seconds) Sets the time, in seconds, before the Tool Settings window is hidden due to the presence of the pointer in the window border defined by a non-zero Hide Border setting. The default is 0.25 seconds.

Upon selection of a tool, the length of the delay is determined by the New Tool Delay setting, rather than Hide Delay, until the Tool Settings window receives focus or usage of the tool begins.

Hide Border (pixels) Sets the size of the border, in pixels, around the Tool Settings window in which the presence of the pointer causes the Tool Settings window to be hidden. If set to zero, the Tool Settings window will always be hidden when the pointer is removed from the window. The default is 15 pixels.
Focus Item Description Shows the description of the control in the dialog that has the input focus.
