It is under the IMAGE heading on the toolbar. It is at the bottom PREFERENCES

Just extract the archive and point it towards the Index.html file

I found it. It was right under my nose. F7 doesn't open the Settings Toolbar, at least not in EasyOS.

F7 doesn't open the Settings Toolbar, at least not in EasyOS

And F12 may not open the Dock either, which also would give you access to the settings.

Unfortunately many moons ago someone found it a good idea to let JWM hijak the F12 key for its menu - in addition to the already existing Alt+F1 shortcut . Consequently F12 is unusable in many Puppies for applications like Firefox, Xfe, Inkscape or mtPaint. Easy to fix. No idea though what EasyOS does with F7. Works in all other Puppies I tried.
