Set preferences window
Use this window to change the appearance of the File Browser. It contains controls to set and save display options. If you clear all options, File Browser lists in ascending alphabetic order the names of all directories followed by all files, and the checkout icon if the element is checked out.
Click Dismiss to close the Set Preferences window and return to the File Browser.
Save is available only if you change settings. Click Save to have the current settings take effect for future File Browser sessions. The settings are stored in the .xclearcase file in your home directory.
