Description

#78 correctly added a validator, but the project settings can only handle string values for extension-added settings. So until https://github.com/paranext/paranext-core/pull/2238 is completed, our ContinuousScroll Boolean setting can only be switch from the extension. Typing "True" or "False" in the project settings errors when the string hits the validator.

Research direction

Start by reading issue #78 and the project-settings handling for extension-added settings, then check the referenced paranext-core pull request #2238 for the expected value flow. Reproduce the ContinuousScroll setting error when entering "True" or "False"; done means Boolean values can be changed in project settings without the validator rejecting them.
