General UI Settings¶

Many parts of the user interface can be hidden.

Here, you see the parts of the menu at the left:

In SEAL Operator, configure the keys for the user interface:

Export the complete configuration of SEAL Operator from Consul to a YAML file in order to ensure that the current configuration settings are used.
```

Printer Lists¶

As of version 1.5.0, SEAL Operator allows the user to customize their printer lists with favorites. To mark a printer as a favorite, click the star next to it in the printer list. The marked printer is now pinned at the top of the list. To revert it, click the star next to the printer again.

This can be done in the PLOSSYS 4 and PLOSSYS Output Engine panels as well as via the settings menu.
