Enable visual style for toolbars

Alternate toolbar button border

Enlarge toolbar buttons

Allow double-click on the Status Bar
When this option is checked, you can double-click on the Status Bar indicator to run the related menu command.
Allow double-column toolbar
When this option is checked, the standard toolbar shows two columns when it is docked vertically. This prevents the toolbar from being clipped when the height of the toolbar is bigger than the size of screen.

When this option is checked,
View in Browser command uses temporary file to preview the HTML document.
