Some of the options mentioned above can be adjusted within the Views screen. However, these modifications are not persisted! To prevent a situation where other users are instantly affected by undesirable changes, only a user with administrative privileges can alter views effectively. Any temporary modifications made in the views screen will be lost whenever the views screen is closed, or another view is opened. Read more about adjusting views in the FlexGrid - Designer screen.
