By pressing Apply, you can experiment with options without exiting 
the dialogue. 

... press the keypad / key to display frame rates in the upper left 
corner of your screen 

... zoom in or out to your liking 

... if you're adjusting for frame rates, zoom to a point that frame 
rates are less than maximum (that's easy for most people) 

... if you are adjusting options in order to enhance the appearance
of buildings or units, zoom all the way in so that the building/unit
is on the edge of your display and so you can still see it after you 
enter options 

... enter Options -- Video 

... change some setting and then click Apply and repeat for various 
settings until you get the best appearance versus frame rates
