OpenSUSE Tumbleweed run as root

I'm attempting to kick the tires pretty hard on moving from a Windows 11 host over to OpenSUSE Tumbleweed.  I got Workstation Pro installed and running, however I've noticed in some of the Preferences dialogs there are warnings that I have to be running as root in order to modify certain settings (memory over-allocation/swapping for example).  Can anyone help me out with figuring out how to make that...run GUI app as root on-demand...happen?  FWIW xfce window environment, accessed both local/console and occasionally over xrdp.

I did take a run at editing visudo and modifying the launch command on the .desktop shortcut but that didn't seem to work (open to trying again).

TIA!
