Edit a Page Layout

The Layout feature lets you create custom layouts that you can then apply to your trading pages. Use the Layout editor to identify which columns you want to display, where you want the columns to be in relation to each other, and the text and background colors used to convey trading information for a specific layout.

If you want to change the way your pages display but want them all to look the same, you can simply change the Default page layout. If you want to apply different layouts to specific pages or save the default settings, create a new layout by copying the Default, renaming and editing it.

To edit a page layout

  1. On the Edit menu, click Global Configuration and then click Trading Window.
  2. In the left pane, select the layout you want to edit.
  3. Use the Market Data Columns and Order Columns tabs to Add or Remove fields.

     

  4. Fields in the Market Data Columns page display along the TOP row of field headings on a Trading page. Fields in the Order Columns page display along the bottom row of fields headings. If you display the same field on both the Market Data and Order row pages, it appears as a single field like the Underlying, Exchange and Description fields above.
  5. If desired, change text and background color using the Colors tab and click OK.

The layout remains unused until you apply it to a page.
