The following options are available:
- Conditional Formatting: Allows you to create conditions to highlight information in tables/overview pages. Read more in Use Conditional Formatting.
- Freeze/Unfreeze Column: Allows you to freeze/unfreeze the column you have marked. This column and those to the left do not scroll when you use the horizontal scrollbar. You can unfreeze or do another freeze on top of it.
- Hide Column: This will hide the column you have marked. Undo hide using Reset Current View option or via Column Chooser option.
- Column Chooser: This opens the Column Chooser dialog. Read more in section Column Chooser.
- Set Header Rows: Allows you to change the height of the column headers in a table, setting them to 1, 2 or 3 rows instead of default.
- Optimize This Column Width: Optimizes the column you have marked to fit with the size of the column header.
- Optimize All Column Widths: Optimizes all columns to fit with the size of the column header.
- Auto Size: This will fit all visible columns in the work area. Note that in some pages you need to hide columns before selecting this option. This function adopts all column widths so that there is no need for a horizontal scrollbar. Also when resizing the window, the column adapts to fill the available space.
- Reset Current View: Resets the current page back to default settings.
- Custom Objects. This includes options to work with Custom Menus, Information Cards etc., usually only available for the System Administrator. Read more in the Technical information.

Use the Column Chooser to define which columns to show/hide and to change the order to the columns.
