Application Preferences:

Remember open files - If this check box is checked, all files open when you quit ScrapIt Pro will be opened the next time you start ScrapIt Pro (this feature System 7 only).

Show Other Files - If this check box is checked, the Scrap Files Menu will contain any names of system files.  You will also see any of these type of files when you select the “Open…” option from the “File” menu.  The only reason to check this option is if you have files created by SmartScrap or Apple's old Scrapbook with a name other than “Scrapbook File”. If you don't have these file types, leave the option un-checked.

Ask for name after paste - If this check box is checked, any time you paste data into a scrap file, you’ll be asked for a name for the item.

Load Voices on start-up - If this check box is checked and the Speech Manager is available, ScrapIt Pro will build a menu of voices to be used when speaking text. If you have the Speech Manager installed and you don’t wish to use it in ScrapIt Pro, disable this option and ScrapIt Pro will start up much faster.

Option-Click to drag & drop - This option is useful only if Drag & Drop is available on your computer.

• If this option is checked, you will have to hold down the Option key and click on the Current Item Area to drag it (to another ScrapIt Window, the Desktop, to another Drag & Drop capable application, etc.).  The only reason you'd want to check this option is if you don't do much drag & dropping but do more picture selecting, sound or movie playing from within ScrapIt Pro.

• If this item is not checked, just click in the Current Item Area of any item type (except “TEXT”) and drag it.  Since text can be selected and edited, it behaves a bit differently.  You have to Option-click the text to drag the entire text item, or just click within a selected portion of text to drag the selection.  This also changes how sounds or movies are played (by clicking) and how portions of pictures are selected.  To play or movie or sound just Option-click on the Sound or Movie icon in the Current Item Area.  To select a portion of a picture, just Option-click in the picture and drag to select.

Quit on last window closing - Check this option if you'd like ScrapIt Pro to quit when you close the last open window (it will also quit if you Option-click any windows close box).

Use Selection Rectangle - Select this radio button if you'd like to use the standard selection rectangle to select portions of a picture.

Use Lasso - Select this radio button if you'd like to use the lasso tool to select portions of a picture.
