This setting is available for &link_folders; only and determines whether the folder is a "work area folder".

Work-area folders have two special features. When you close the folder, all windows belonging to the objects within the folder are closed automatically and the view of each object is saved. When you open the folder the next time, the windows for the objects in the folder are displayed with their previous view.

The other feature is that when you hide the window of a work-area folder, all windows belonging to the objects in the folder are hidden automatically. When you show the work-area folder (from the Window List), the windows for the objects in the folder are displayed with their previous view.

If you minimize a work-area folder, only the icon for the work-area folder is displayed in the Minimized Window Viewer or on the Desktop. The windows belonging to the objects in the work-area folder are not displayed.

Work-area folders function with the icon or details view, but not with the tree view.

This item cannot be disabled for the Desktop.
