# Transfer tile view

Preparations

We recommend that you create a test user. You can create tiles for this user and then customize the appearance and arrangement of the tiles. Then, you can transfer the settings from this account to other users or option groups.

Alternatively, you can transfer your own account settings or those of other users.

The method below describes the steps for a test user.

Requirement

The corresponding tiles have been created for the target users.

Method

  1. Log on as a test user.

  2. Change the display and arrangement of the tiles and tile groups as required. You will find more information in the user documentation under ELO Java Client > Program interface > Tile navigation (opens new window).

  3. Log the test user out to save the changes.

  4. As administrator, open the configuration.

  5. Select the user or option group you want to apply the tile view for.

  6. Go to Manage functions > Apply tile view of.

  7. Under Select user, select the test user.

  8. Select OK.

Result

The selected user/option group inherits the tile groups and the tile view settings (e.g. color, size, icon).

The settings will only take effect after you restart the client.
