Specifying Display Settings
Select the Display tab.
Use the Display tab to configure the appearance of the PeopleSoft development environment graphical user interface. For instance, you can adjust page width and height to fit in with the other elements on your desktop.
Note: These settings affect the interface display for PeopleTools Windows applications used for development and administration, such as Application Designer and Data Mover. These settings have no effect on PeopleSoft applications displayed to end users on browsers.
Language
In the Language drop-down list box, specify which language you want to display. The default setting is US English.
Note: You select from the languages that PeopleSoft delivers. Although you can implement applications to appear in other languages, you cannot switch to custom languages using PeopleSoft Configuration Manager. Switch to these languages by manually changing the registry setting.
Page Display
You can adjust page display size or the window height and width.
