Changing the UI Theme

The Display tab lists several UI skins provided by PPM Pro. The Planview - Compact theme renders the page with a little less white space than Planview - Default if you prefer more screen real estate. The Planview - Presentation theme is higher contrast and designed for web presentations. This preference is user-specific.
