Editing the Layout of Home Pages


The edit layout function lets you access more advanced layout editing functions, such as showing hidden lists or forms, collapsing or expanding all the available lists and forms at once, and restoring the default layout. You can use the edit layout function to edit both the home page for your Siebel application and screen home pages. The changes you make remain in effect until you change the layout again.
