The Options button on your paper doll allows you to customize your client to suit your tastes and make any adjustments that may be needed for your computer. The various pages of the gump are accessed through the tabs left and right. The opening page is ‘Sound and Music’, top left tab.

The first tab on the right is the “Interface” page, you will need to scroll down to see all the options on this page

The final tab on the right allows you to filter out text from players, either in the game window or in chat.

The final tab, on the left, is the “Macros” page. A considerable number of macros may be set and tied to ‘hot keys’. You may set up to 5 lines to each macro, though it is often wise to make each alternate line a ‘delay’ or ‘wait for target’ command to ensure smooth application of your chosen action.

The Actions box on the right drops down to give a large variety of commands, some of which give context-sensitive drop downs on the right hand side and some which allow text or other values to be set. As an example here is the drop down menu for the ‘open’ command.
