Within the Update My Details screen, there are options available to allow you to change the background contrast and header colour within such screens as property, applicant, vendor, landlord and contact

These options allow an individual user to choose how they best prefer to view their data

Before opening the Update My Details screen, it is recommended to open a screen where these settings apply (such as a property or applicant record)

Then, when making changes, they will be seen on the open record in the background

1. Access Edit My Details option

  • Click your name/office at the top of the main menu


  • Under your name, click Edit My Details

    The Update My Details screen will be displayed

 

2. Accessibility Settings

In the Accessibility Settings section:

  • Background contrast

    • Standard - white
      (default setting)

    • High - light grey

  • Header type

    Options are:

    • White - panel headers not shaded (default setting)

    • Grey - panel headers are shaded grey

    • Active screen colour - panel headers are shaded in the theme colour for the current screen
      e.g. applicant = green
      property = blue
      contact = orange

    More information on this screen can be found here and also here
