The Configuration Dialog

The user settings for the complete GenDB web interface can be edited in this dialog. This includes colors, numbers of observations for different tools you want to view and many other things. The navigation is done by the six links at the beginning which represent the main menu of the !ConfigurationDialog. These six menues are now shortly described.

• function status: use the colors defined in the section Function Status. Each region will be filled according to its functional status
• region type: use the colors defined in the section Region Color.
