This dialog box displays
the current Question. Its position and size are stored at the end of a Q&A
session and this setting used when the file is reloaded.
The Question dialog is made up of six components as further described
below starting at the top of the dialog:
Title Bar
Contains the file name of the currently-loaded .FLS file (card
deck).
Status Bar

Options|Colors & Fonts|Use Color Codes In Q&A Status Panels
is selected.
Starting from the left, the Status Bar contains the following data
and controls:
Category - Contains the Category of the currently-displayed Question
if one has been entered - History in the bar above. Otherwise displays
"Category".

bar above - as well as the following color-coded information:

Toggle Browse Mode Button - This button toggles between the Browser
mode and the normal operating mode of the Question dialog. In Browser
Mode the bottom bar of the Question dialog contains buttons allowing
navigation - Previous Question, Next Question, First Question, Last
Question as well as Go To Pair, Show Answer, Find and Find Next.
No scores are recorded when using the Browse Mode.
Unasked Pairs Remaining In This Pass - The count of how many pairs
remain to be viewed - 2 in the bar above - in the selected group.

example, if you're in Frequency Based On Priority List Mode and
you have the frequency set to 75%, the count will represent the
number of Priority pairs remaining. If the frequency were set to
25% the count would represent the number of non-Priority pairs remaining.
