Haunschild layout
shows harmonies and scales in an order proposed in a book about harmony theory by the german author Haunschild. If selected, chords are shown in a way that 'valid moves' are

same notes, 1 semitone, 3 common notes
neighbour chords are marked (an outlined rectangle is drawn). same notes marks the same chord in differnt scales, 1 semitone marks all chords, that differ from the selected chord by 1 semitone, 3 common notes marks all chords, that have 3 notes in common with the actual chord (its almost always valid, to replace a chord with this 'median' to make harmonies more interesting).

tritone
marks the tritone substitute of the current (dominant) chord

show pianowin
if enabled, the selected chord is not pasted to the pianowin copy buffer. Instead, all chords are marked that match the actual contents of the pianowin buffer. This allows to analyze chords from the song.
