Display settings let you customize what you see in each view—which columns appear, how things are grouped, and the sort order.

## Changing Display Settings

1. Open any view
2. Click the **Display** button
3. Make your changes
4. Settings save automatically

## What You Can Customize

### Columns

Show or hide columns to focus on what matters for that view. For example:

* A "Financial Review" view might show price columns
* A "Daily Checkin" view might focus on status and last activity
* A "Pipeline" view might show expected close dates

### Grouping

Group your records to see them organized by category:

* **By Status** - See leads at each stage of your pipeline
* **By Priority** - High priority items together
* **By Assigned To** - Who's working on what

Or choose no grouping for a simple flat list.

### Sorting

Control the order records appear:

* **By Priority** - Most important at top
* **By Date** - Newest or oldest first
* **By Name** - Alphabetical order
* **By Last Activity** - Recently updated first

## Your Settings vs Team Defaults

Your display preferences are personal—changing them won't affect your teammates. Everyone can set up each view the way they like.

**For Admins:** You can set default display settings for your team:

1. Set up the display how you want it
2. Click **Set as default for everyone**
3. New team members will start with these settings

Anyone can still customize their own view, but this gives everyone a good starting point.
