## Navigation theme
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The GitLab navigation theme setting allows you to personalize your GitLab experience.
|
|
|
|
|
You can choose from several color themes that add unique colors to the top navigation
|
|
|
|
|
and left side navigation.
|
|
|
|
|
Using individual color themes might help you differentiate between your different
|
|
|
|
|
GitLab instances.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2019-10-12 21:52:04 +05:30
|
|
|
|

|
2018-11-08 19:23:39 +05:30
|
|
|
|
NOTE: **Note:**
|
|
|
|
|
GitLab uses the [rouge Ruby library](http://rouge.jneen.net/ "Rouge website")
|
|
|
|
|
for syntax highlighting. For a list of supported languages visit the rouge website.
|
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changing this setting allows you to customize the color theme when viewing any
|
|
|
|
|
syntax highlighted code on GitLab.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2019-10-12 21:52:04 +05:30
|
|
|
|
The default syntax theme is White, and you can choose among 5 different themes:

[Introduced](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/2389) in 13.0, the theme
|
|
|
|
|
you choose also applies to the [Web IDE](../project/web_ide/index.md)'s code editor and [Snippets](../snippets.md).
|
|
|
|
|
The themes are available only in the Web IDE file editor, except for the [dark theme](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/209808),
|
|
|
|
|
which applies to the entire Web IDE screen.

## Behavior
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following settings allow you to customize the behavior of GitLab's layout
|
|
|
|
|
and default views of your dashboard and the projects' landing pages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Layout width
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
GitLab can be set up to use different widths depending on your liking. Choose
|
2019-07-07 11:18:12 +05:30
|
|
|
|
between the fixed (max. `1280px`) and the fluid (`100%`) application layout.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: **Note:**
|
|
|
|
|
While `1280px` is the standard max width when using fixed layout, some pages still use 100% width, depending on the content.
|
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
### Default dashboard
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For users who have access to a large number of projects but only keep up with a
|
|
|
|
|
select few, the amount of activity on the default Dashboard page can be
|
|
|
|
|
overwhelming. Changing this setting allows you to redefine what your default
|
|
|
|
|
dashboard will be.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30

editor and Markdown editor.

<!-- ## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Include any troubleshooting steps that you can foresee. If you know beforehand what issues
|
|
|
|
|
one might have when setting this up, or when something is changed, or on upgrading, it's
|
|
|
|
|
important to describe those, too. Think of things that may go wrong and include them here.
|
|
|
|
|
This is important to minimize requests for support, and to avoid doc comments with
|
|
|
|
|
questions that you know someone might ask.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each scenario can be a third-level heading, e.g. `### Getting error message X`.
|
|
|
|
|
If you have none to add when creating a doc, leave this section in place
|
|
|
|
|
but commented out to help encourage others to add to it in the future. -->
