• By screen units
The cursor moves in screen units. Increments are independent
of the current video standard, and equal either 1/500 (fine) or
1/50 (coarse) of screen height. The status bar displays current
x and y coordinates, with the origin at the center of the screen.
To select “coarse” or “fine”, choose Transform/Coarse or Fine
(Ctrl+spacebar) from the Options menu.
Show text cursor
Shows or hides the text cursor.
Moving cursor sets font and look
Automatically changes the current style, whenever you move the
text cursor, to reflect the style of the character to the left of the
cursor.
Home and End key behavior
Determines whether the Home and End keys behave as they
typically do in Windows applications, or as they do on a traditional
television character generator.
