Description of Changes
This PR adds a new menu item
Display options ...to the options menu of the array and dataframe editors. Clicking this menu item brings up a dialog window where the user can set float format, whether to use a background color and what coloring algorithm to use (the last option only appears for dataframe editors). The new menu item replaces the existing icons and menu items for setting these options.The reason for this PR is that it is not clear what these options do and having a separate dialog window allows us to add more context. See issue #21824 for some discussion. I replaced the text
Additional preferencesfor the menu item, which was suggested in that issue, because I thought we should remove the word "additional" as it is not clear in addition to what these preferences are.Here is a video showing the new window:
