<ordered_list> dialog box

Go Up to Tools Options Index

This group includes the Conditional Defines, Directories, Include path, and other dialog boxes. These dialog boxes can have different purposes, but they all provide tools to manage ordered lists of items (for example, an ordered list of directories or user-defined conditional symbols). Therefore, each of these dialog boxes has the pane containing a list of items.

You can invoke these dialog boxes from different Options or Project Options dialog boxes, which you can open with the Tools > Options or Project > Options menu commands, by clicking the button next to a control containing an ordered list of items.

Note: Not all of the options described below are available in each of these dialogs.

or	Moves the selected item up or down, respectively, in the ordered list pane.
<text_entry_field>	Specifies an item to add, replace or delete from the ordered list pane. You can enter an item in this field or click an item in the ordered list pane to select the item and display it in this field.
Ellipsis or Browse for Folder button	When you are editing a list of directories or filenames (such as header names), displays a Browse for Folder dialog box. You can navigate to and select a folder. The item that you select is displayed in the text entry field.

<display / working_field> in lower pane	The lower pane, when present, is either a display or a working area where you can construct items to move into the upper ordered list pane. For Project Options dialogs, this box lists the items that are controlled by the Inherit values from "parent configuration(s)" check box. When items listed here are grayed, you cannot enter items in this pane or select individual items.
