What

Documents the Restrict Layout Customization setting and the organization-wide layout defaults it pins users to.

  • Customizing Tables: a new section on designating a shared table view as the organization default, and on the Restrict Layout Customization setting: what changes for non-superusers, and that personal preferences are kept and restored when it is turned back off.
  • Customizable Dashboards: the organization default dashboard (Set Org Default in Manage Layouts) and how the restriction behaves.
  • The Settings Menu: the new UI Defaults group (Form Configuration and Layout Defaults) and a section describing the Layout Defaults page.

Notes

Documentation only. The behavior is described in words; no screenshots.

…ings group

Document the setting that pins non-superusers to admin-designated layout defaults,
and the organization-wide defaults themselves. The table-customization page gains an
organization-defaults and restriction section, the custom-dashboards page gains the
organization default and the restriction, and the settings-menu page documents the
new UI Defaults group (Form Configuration and Layout Defaults).

…esignation

Align the Layout Defaults docs with the shipped UI: the default for each
surface is the "Global Default" (not the "organization default"), and it can
be chosen from a dropdown of the admin-shared layouts on the Layout Defaults
page, in addition to designating one in context.
