Both of us seem to primarily customize one option at a time -- so it's mostly a matter of how far you have to move the mouse to active that changes... My main objection to the customize interface is the long babble at the start of the buffer and the long text on the buttons. IMO, this is VERY dissimilar to other applications, and sort of indicates to the movice user that the Customize interface is very different from and much more complex than what the user is familiar with. A simpler interface with a "one line" button bar (prefeably in the header line when supported) like this [Set] [Save] [Load] [Finish] would be ideal IMO. -- Kim F.
