Preferences 8
Users can see and change two types of preference settings: system-wide and
application-specific.
System-wide Preferences 8
A user accesses system-wide preferences through the built-in Prefs application.
Its main view lists preference categories, and tapping a category displays a
slip containing relevant preference items. Your application can add categories
and corresponding views that the Prefs application displays, but they must be
for system-wide preferences rather than application-specific ones. Figure 8-26
shows the standard system-wide categories on a MessagePad 120.
