Thanks for feedback.

Yes indeed, when switching to new layout some options are preset (which
might not be obvious :-).

This was a quick and dirty solution, to add the possibility for some new
options.

The current implementation of the original prefs (... and yes, having
tabs is the right way) is a mess and made up with a different layout
manager, that is not available in my NetBeans environment.

As already mentioned in the release note for 1.0.0: I will completely
rewrite the whole prefs area for 1.1.

** Summary changed:

- In Preference dialog, some checkboxes can't be checked when "new layout" checkbox checked
+ [1.0] Preference dialog: has some inconstancies and not obvious dependencies

** Summary changed:

- [1.0] Preference dialog: has some inconstancies and not obvious dependencies
+ [1.0] Preference dialog: has some inconsistencies and not obvious dependencies among the options in ... more options

** Description changed:

+ --- will be completely new in version 1.1

  [Steps to Reproduce]
  (1) Open SIkuli IDE.
  (2) Select "File" - "Preference...".
  (3) Click the button "more optinos ...".
  (4) Tick the checkbox of "Activate the new layout (X-1.0)".
  (5) Tick the checkbox of "ImageThumbs (on)/ ImageLabels (off)".
  (6) Hover the mouse cursor onto the label or checkbox of "Activate the new layout (X-1.0)".
  
  [Actual Results]
  (6) The checkbox of "ImageThumbs (on)/ ImageLabels (off)" becomes unchecked.
  
  [Extra Notes]
-  - In Step (6), use any checkbox in "Message to show" section instead, this bug exists too.
-  - After Step (5), save and restarting Sikuli IDE, this bug exists too.
-  - I don't know why when "Activate the new layout (X-1.0)" is checked, the checkboxes in "Message to show" section and the checkbox "ImageThumbs (on)/ ImageLabels (off)" are unchecked automatically. Is this as required?
-  - Users would get confused about the combination effect of "Save" button in "Perferences: more Options..." dialog and the "OK"/"Apply"/"Cancel" buttons in "Prefernces" dialog. In my opinion, it's better to do not use a new dialog for "Perferences: more Options...", but let it be the forth tab of the "Prefernces" dialog.
