Checkboxes will change their state.

Radio buttons will be activated.
5.1.12.3
(H)ighlight hotkeys
When
'(H)ighlight hotkeys'
is active, the hotkeys are highlighted by being enclosed in round
brackets, as in the titles in this section. This is useful when you are working in 6 dot Braille
or while you are still learning the hotkeys.
5.1.12.4
show s(Y)stem files
If you activate this checkbox, the system files needed by the Actilino will be displayed in the
file list, along with the files created by you.
!!!!WARNING!!!
We recommend not to activate this option. There are several reasons:
1. You only need a display of system files under rare circumstances and navigating
through the file list will be much faster without them.
2. Displaying them also makes it possible to delete system files. You will receive a
warning if you attempt to delete system files, however, if you delete, for example the
currently used message file, you can no longer work on the Actilino until this file has
been restored. You should therefore delete system files only if you are sure you know
what you are doing.
You take on a great deal of responsibility by being given the option of deleting system files.
Help Tech GmbH therefore accepts no warranty claims arising from any damage caused by
deleting system files.
5.1.12.5
show f(O)lders first
This option determines whether the folders or files are listed first in the file list. By default,
this option is set which means the folders are listed first. If you want the files listed first, you
can deactivate this option by pressing [SPC].
5.1.12.6
(Q)uick entry
If you activate this option, keys [7] and [8] will have a different function: pressed individually,
[7] is now the backspace key and [8] by itself is the TRC key. When pressed together with
other keys, [7] and [8] retain their original function. For example, [SPC+7] still moves the
cursor to the left and capital letters can also be typed as usual.
5.1.12.7
show file attri(B)utes
This option controls whether file attributes are displayed on the file list or not. If this option
is activated, the file list will show the size as well as the date and time of the most recent
access to the file in addition to the file name. This function will slow navigation through the
file list a little, however.
5.1.12.8
auto switch e(X)t keyboard
When active, the Actilino automatically switches an external keyboard connected to it into
external keyboard mode when the operating mode is set to PC Mode and thus the keyboard
can then be used to operate the PC.
