Any enlightenment appreciated. To the best of my incomplete knowledge you're not and, really, rather a lot of TB!'s customisation features are a horrible muddle and need to be rewritten from scratch. (I've never understood the 'use account default column settings' - where are they set? I would expect the defaults to be set in Account Properties and folders which _don't_ take the defaults to have them explicitly set via another tab in right-mouse-button | Properties. I'm afraid that, if things like this don't hit you in the face, they're not worth using). If you think the column settings lack clarity, try 'use folder-specific print settings' - this was explained to me as clearly as it could have been yet is still utterly incomprehensible. I have neither time nor inclination to learn such curious user interface notions ...
