window).

Select the target in the batch with the setting that you want to change.

The setting appears in the Inspector window with Selected Target in the Name field. This
is a temporary copy of the setting and not the setting itself, so you can make temporary
modifications to the setting for just that one batch submission.

Batch window to see
its settings in the
Inspector window.

The setting’s name
appears as Selected
