Customizing a Form

As a user, you can customize many aspects of the way a given form looks, and save those changes so that, every time you open the form, it includes your changes. Changes you can make in run-time, regardless of your editing permissions, include:

The size of the form
The position of the splitter in multiview forms
The sequence of columns in a grid display
The width of columns in a grid
Whether columns in a grid display or not

NOTE: Before you can save these changes:

Your system administrator must have the Allow saving form runtime changes process default set to 1.
You must select both of these Runtime Behavior options in User Preferences:
- Prompt to Save Form Splitter Changes
- Prompt to Save Grid Changes
If you do not select these options, Mongoose does not save your run-time form changes.

Any changes beyond these require that you have editing permissions that allow you to go into Design Mode and make changes there.
