Selecting Ranges


Purge

Purge will destroy the thread listing for the group which is currently selected in the left window. This may not always be the same group who's threads are in the right window.

Purge should be used when a group contains no threads for which you wish to retrieve, and you do not want the new thread listings to be mixed with the current ones.


Exit

Exits Thread Selector.


Tag
(Un)Tag All

This item will select or deselect all threads in the right window.


Search & (Un)Tag

This will allow you to enter a search substring and tag/untag threads in the right window based on matches.


Large Font

Selecting this option will force the list windows to use a large font.


Thread

When this option is checked, whole threads are automatically selected.  This is only useful for programs which retrieve individual message subjects (ie Slipstream Jet). This option will have little effect on programs which have the ability to pre thread (Delphi Internet Jet).

For example, if the following subject's were listed in the right window:
01 How to use 2 pass? (Re:)
01 How to use 2 pass? (Re:)
01 How to use 2 pass?

If you select the first one, all three will automatically be selected.


Selecting Ranges

To select a range of titles you can use the shift key.  First select the beggining position, then hold the shift key down while clicking the ending position.  All titles between and including the beginning and ending points will then be selected.


640 x 480 (Laptops)

This option will quickly resize the window to 640x480 at the upper left position of the screen. This is useful for laptops which have scrolling screen drivers (Virtual consoles).  It will position it to fit within the physical display area.
