Description 

SpeedSettings  

Displays a drop-down list box to choose from the following color schemes and option settings: Custom colors and settings, Default colors and settings, Traditional colors and settings, Classic colors and settings, and Visual Studio(TM) emulation.  

Show instance list  

Displays the drop-down list box of components and their class names (called the instance list) at the top of the Object Inspector. The list is useful when you have many components on your form or data module and can’t find the one you want right away.  

Show classname in instance list  

Displays the component’s class name for every component in the instance list, not just the first one.  

Show status bar  

Displays the status bar at the bottom of the Object Inspector. The status bar indicates how many properties or events are not shown as a result of right-clicking the Object Inspector and selecting View. If all properties or events are visible in the Object Inspector, it says All shown.  

Render background grid  

Adds horizontal background lines to designate columns and rows on the Properties and Events pages.  

Integral height (when not docked)  

Adjusts the Object Inspector between a full row instead of a partial row as you vertically resize the Object Inspector with your cursor.  

Show read only properties  

Displays the properties for components even if the properties are read only. By default, they are grayed out.  

Bold non default values  

Displays non-default values as bold text in the current Non Default Value color setting.  

Show gutter  

Draws an outline along the left edge of the Object Inspector and fills the outlined area with the current Gutter Color setting for additional readability.  

Colors  

To customize one of the imported color schemes, select it from the SpeedSettings list. Then select an option and select a different color from the drop-down list below. For example, to change the color of Value, the text color for properties’ values, select Value and click clYellow from the Options list. You save your new settings once you click OK. This automatically saves the changes to the Custom colors and settings scheme, not the original scheme.
To return to your default settings, click Default colors and settings or one of the others.  

Expand inline  

Displays the properties of the referenced component. To view these properties, click the plus sign (+) next to the referenced component. By default, referenced components are red and their properties green.  

Show on events page  

Displays the events of the referenced component. By default, referenced properties are red and their events green.
