In most cases I want to forward using attachments, but there are a few
people whose email readers require inline forwarding. Is there a way to
do this easily, or do I have to go change a global setting every time I
want to do so?

In case it is possible to create a toggle, I have PrefBar installed.

Click Forward Drop Marker -> Forward Inline or Forward Attachment. If not this
which setting in prefs do you mean?

That is what I am talking about, but when I click on the forward line I
do not get a choice of inline or attachment, it opens ready to send as
an attachment.

Looking in preferences under Composition & Addressing Global preferences
I see a forward messages option offering either inline or attachment, no
way to select at time of forwarding.

Near the "Forward" icon on the top bar there's a small arrow, click it and
select what you need

That solved the problem, I was using the pop-up on the message header
and not the forward on the upper menu.

Thank you for the pointer, problem solved.

The two Forward options are available on the
Program Menu Bar => Message/Forward As
Message Menu Bar => Message/Forward As

OP was using the context menu from the message pane, where the menu item
has no roll-out to forwarding options. I don't think that this is
customisable in SM without an add-on?

Yeah. If this is needed open a bug and I will see if I can fix it. Should not
be too hard because forward as is already in the main menu bar. No eta even
with open bug as usual :) 2.53.18b1 first.

There are two other options/locations on the Program Toolbar Bar and the
Message Tool Bar when the Forward option is configured to be present via
Customize for those two locations.
Both of these are present on my SM 2.53.17. Don't recall adding them
via Customize, so am assuming they are present by default unless changed
locally by a user.

i.e. currently 4 methods to choose Inline or Attachement.
The Context menus for the (1)message in the Message pane and (2)meesage
in its own open window appear to be the only locations the dual Forward
choice(Inline or Attachment) is not available.

:) If the feature is added to the Context menus that would be 6 total
methods!

No issue for me, but what would be very nice is if the Customi[zs]e...
function as available in toolbars were available for menus as well. I
thought FF had this but maybe a memory of Word for Windows is confusing
me. In SM you can adjust the Menu Bar but not the items in each menu.
