Allows you to set the details for your text editor regardless of which application you are using.
Choosing the Per Language option sets these options for all of the editors in the development environment. To set the Per Language options for a specific editor, choose the editor in the list below the Per Language options and select the options. Changes to the specific editor are effective only until you change the options again from the Per Language entry. For example, if you want to have all of the URLs open the browser and go to the Internet site in all of your editors in the development environment, chose Per Language in the Text Editor options of the Options dialog box, then select Enable single-click URL navigation. If you want to Enable virtual space for only your HTML editors without enabling it for your other editors, choose HTML under Per Language in the Text Editor options of the Options dialog box, then click Enable Virtual Space.
Note Application-specific options do not appear in the Options dialog box until the application is loaded into memory. Therefore, you may not see the same options you saw during your last session. Once you create a project or use a command that uses a particular application, the options appear in the Options dialog box and remain available as long as the application remains in memory. Common options are available all of the time.
CAUTION Clicking Cancel cancels all of the changes made in the dialog box. If you made changes to more than one category, none of the changes will be saved.

When selected, displays URLs with underlines, changes the mouse cursor as it moves over URL text, and opens the browser to the valid Internet site when you click the mouse while the cursor is over URL text. When the check box is cleared, URLs are not underlined, there is no change to the mouse cursor when you move it over URL text, and you cannot open the Internet site from the editor. You can open the Internet site only by right-clicking the URL text and choosing the Open URL command on the shortcut menu.
