Yes, thanks. I see now where it might be useful. I also see that
certain items are hidden when the box is checked. But what is "not
specifically selected?" The items? How would I specifically select
them and why? Whatever it is that is "specifically selected" must not
be done in order to hide them? That's confusing to me.
