Electronic – What do these IAR IDE icons mean

Quick and easy question – if you know the answer. I can't find it mentioned in the documentation. What do the icons circled in red mean?

Found in the built-in help (Workspace window):

The column that contains status information about option overrides can have one of three icons for each level in the project:

Blank There are no settings/overrides for this file/group.

Black check mark There are local settings/overrides for this file/group.

Red check mark There are local settings/overrides for this file/group, but they are either identical to the inherited settings or they are ignored because you use multi-file compilation, which means that the overrides are not needed.
