User Interface Improvements:

• The startbox setting buttons have been replaced with the Startbox Combobox, which contains all previous configurations and a new entry to reset boxes to default settings.
• Add support for small icons in the dropdown menu of comboboxes, you can see this used in the new Startbox ComboBox.
