<h2><em>Automatically select latest Developer Library</em> Checkbox</h2><a name="hover%2eprefs%2eautomatic"></a>
<p>
		  When you check the &quot;Automatically select latest Developer
		  Library&quot; checkbox, the Developer Library is automatically selected for you.
		  The name of the selected library is displayed in the grayed field.
		  If you want to select a particular Developer Library, follow these 
		  <a href="preferences.html#hover%2eprefs%2eselect_DL" title="The selected Developer Library is shown in the drop-down box.">steps</a>.
		</p><p>
		  The right Developer Library is chosen using these heuristics: 
		</p><ol> 
		  <li>
				Choose by audience and license of the Developer Library.
				<em>Platform</em> development has precedence over <em>public</em> development. 
			  
			 
				For example: &quot;Developer Library <em>rel1</em> (Platform) (<em>date1</em>)&quot; will be chosen rather
				than &quot;Developer Library <em>rel2</em> (Public) (<em>date2</em>)&quot;.
			  
		  </li>
 
		  <li>
 
			 
				Then choose by latest publication date of the Developer Library.
				For example: &quot;Developer Library <em>rel1</em> (Platform) (<em>21/03/2009</em>)&quot; will be chosen
				rather than &quot;Developer Library <em>rel1</em> (Platform) (<em>20/02/2009</em>)&quot;.
			  
		  </li>
 		  
		</ol></div>
<div class="section">
<h2>Developer Libraries Drop-Down Box</h2><a name="hover%2eprefs%2eselect_DL"></a><p>
		  The selected Developer Library is shown in the drop-down box.

The name of the selected library is displayed in the greyed field.">&quot;Automatically select latest Developer Library&quot;</a> checkbox.
		  Then select a Developer Library from the drop-down box list. 
		  To add a new Developer Library, follow these <a href="setup.html#hover%2eadd_DL%2e" title="New versions of the Developer Library plug-in are published regularly. You can configure Hover Help to use a new version.">steps</a>.
		</p></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><em>Deactivate Hovering</em> Checkbox</h2><a name="hover%2eprefs%2edeactivate"></a><p>
		  Checking the <code class="ProgramOutput">Deactivate Hovering</code> checkbox disables Hover Help,
		  and unchecking the checkbox reactivates Hover Help.
		</p><p>
		  When you reactivate Hover Help, the
		  <a href="preferences.html#hover%2eprefs%2eautomatic" title="When you check the checkbox &quot;Automatically select the latest Developer Library&quot; the Developer Library is automatically selected for you. The name of the selected library is displayed in the greyed field.">&quot;Automatically select latest Developer Library&quot;</a>
		  checkbox is checked. 
		</p></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><em>Restore Defaults</em> Button</h2><a name="hover%2eprefs%2edefault"></a><p>

		  the <a href="preferences.html#hover%2eprefs%2eautomatic" title="When you check the checkbox, the Developer Library is automatically selected for you. The name of the selected library is displayed in the greyed field.">&quot;Automatically select latest Developer Library&quot;</a>
		  checkbox is checked, and the <a href="preferences.html#hover%2eprefs%2edeactivate" title="When you check the checkbox, Hover Help is disabled.">&quot;Deactivate Hovering&quot;</a>
		  checkbox is unchecked.
		</p></div>
<div class="section">
