You will also sometimes see settings which are crossed out - I think
these are settings that are overridden by the current build style.
Does this mean that I cannot change them? I do get crossed settings
as well, and I need to change some of them in some specific targets.
It means those settings are overridden by the current build style. The
Build style is kind of another layer of settings which override your
individual project settings. Normally, you use them for switching
settings between "development" and "deployment", for instance.
Basically anything you set in a build style will override the
individual target settings when you select that build style.
So - if you set the GCC optimisation to "fastest" for the "Deployment"
build style, then all your targets will be built with that optimisation
when you're using that build style.
You can edit the build styles by opening an inspector on the "project
icon" (the topmost icon in the treeview on the left of the project
window). If a build style is overriding setting sthat you want to be
able to edit on a per-target basis then you should just delete it from
the build styles there.

Any settings which are explicitly set (ie. you're overriding their
defaults) will be shown under "current settings". Note that the
"defaults" I'm talking about here are the neutral defaults, NOT the
defaults for the particular target type - if you create a project or
target from a template then the template will override some of the
defaults for you, by default (if that makes sense !)
It does not make complete sense yet, but at least it does help. :-)
"Common settings" is just that - handy settings that you'll often
want to use - you'll find they're duplicated in the other settings
"folders", they're just gthered together there for ease of use.
Right, I suspected something like that.

I have also noticed that a target created either from a template or
manually added to an empty project contains a Build and a Rules tab,
and it shows up as "Native", whereas imported PB projects show up with
their original type (e.g. "Library", "Application"). Furthermore, I
don't see where the type of a project is specified (if anywhere) for
"Native" targets...
Thanks,
