@chaley - I never knew that, I've always read it as being 'show checkboxes in the Tag Browser' (for multiple column searching) When I couldn't see them I shrugged and moved on; I don't use the Tag Browser much.

@barlowrm - sorry for the garden path, the lesson is: if you want to know what a field does look at the tool tip (I know that now, but I didn't when I started):-

Show checkmarks
Show check marks in the GUI. Values of 'yes', 'checked', and 'true' will show a green check. Values of 'no', 'unchecked', and 'false' will show a red X. Everything else will show nothing.
Can't get clearer than that.
