It is slightly confusing. You can use XeTeX and TeX fonts: uncheck
'Use non-TeX fonts', select your preferred TeX fonts and compile View
> Other > PDF (XeTeX). (When you do this, I'm not sure if you benefit
entirely from the Unicode capabilities of XeTeX, since the TeX fonts
are not---to my knowledge---Unicode aware.)

Otherwise, if you need XeTeX with full Unicode support (again, I'm not
sure if above you miss anything), check 'Use non-TeX fonts', select
your preferred system fonts (which, in some cases, can be OTF versions
of the TeX fonts) and compile View > PDF (XeTeX). Unicode is the only
encoding that XeTeX supports, so you don't need to select anything
else.
