I'm just beginning to use preferences.  My next Alpha is going to have
resolution adjustements.  In 3-d a lot of people can't read the screen
easily, and on the .net, they think the font is too big.

If you use the editor to commit preferences, once changed, it works
well.  Just in the create of each activity, re-acquire the setting.
As long as the change has been committed, it reads the most recent
one.

That's what I found.
