The choice made here applies to dimensioning on your current column detail if that drawing depicts column flange stiffeners opposite to a beam moment connection. It applies when you select that column detail for Detail Current Piecemark with templates. It also applies if, after exiting the drawing, you select that drawing for Detail Members with templates .
The ' Top face ' refers to the top of the plate as it appears on the member detail. The options ' Inside/outside faces of plates ' apply to two plates that are parallel to one another; the surfaces of those plates which face each other are the inside faces; the faces which look away from one another are outside faces.

To close Position and Match Marks :
"OK" (or the Enter key) closes the Position and Match Marks window and saves the overrides on it with your current drawing, presumably so that the next time that drawing undergoes member detailing those override settings are applied to the detail.
To permanently save your override changes, you need to save your current drawing. If you close your current drawing without saving changes made to it, any changes to override settings that you have applied to that drawing will be forgotten. On the other hand, a Drawing Overrides List will show active overrides (non-auto settings) that have been applied to your current drawing even if that drawing has not yet been saved.
"Cancel" (or the Esc key or the 
button) closes this window without saving any changes made to it.
"Reset" undoes all changes made to this window since you first opened it. The window remains open.
