|
|
|
|
for syntax highlighting. For a list of supported languages visit the rouge website.

## 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
|
|
|
|
|
between the fixed (max. 1200px) and the fluid (100%) application layout.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 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.
|
|
|
|
|
