Hi Tony,
The dialog you are seeing appears because the Oxygen project you
are opening contains project-level options that can temporarily
override certain global application settings (such as framework
associations, transformation scenarios, validation settings,
catalogs, editor options, etc.). This is a security measure meant
to prevent unintentionally applying configuration changes from
untrusted projects.
Currently, Oxygen does not provide a way to review the
project-specific option changes directly from the warning dialog
that appears when opening a project. However, after the project is
loaded, you can review all project-level overrides in: Options
> Preferences.
On the other hand, project-specific options only apply while that
project is open. When you close the project or open a different
one, Oxygen automatically reverts to your global settings unless
the new project also defines its own overrides.
Regards,
Teo

When
I go to open the Oxygen project for the PDF5-ML [1] manual, I get
a
dialog box with:
The 'pdf5_manual.xpr' project contains options that will change
the
application interface and behavior. To continue opening it,
please
confirm that the project comes from a trusted source.
It is a trusted source, obviously, and I can look in the XML to
see that
some of the specified paths don't suit my system, but is there any
way
within Oxygen to review what these options will change? If there
is, is
there also any way to selectively enable or disable options?
There's also no indication whether any of these option changes
will
persist after I open a different project.
