application.

for the given application.
Check Use Instant Text With This Application if you want to use Instant Text with the current application. If unchecked, Instant Text will not interact at all with the current application.
By default, Instant Text will interact with any Client Application: note that you can change that default in the Usage Options Dialog by unchecking Use Instant Text globally.
Check Instant Text Follows Application Automatically if you want to enable Instant Text to automatically dock to your application window when it gets the focus. The Dock To Current Window checkbox lets you specify if you want docking or not for the currently active window. For example in Notepad you want Instant Text to dock to the main window but not to the File Open or Save dialogs. In practice, while working in your client application with a given window, you can toggle the docking on or off by using the Ctrl+/D shortcut and Instant Text will remember that this is your preferred setting for that window.
Uncheck Instant Text Follows Application Automatically if you want to position Instant Text manually.
