The new user settings menu allows you to customize your settings so they are used whenever you enter the Lustre application. The settings are broken down into three groups: Display & Interface, System & Menu, and Tools. When you create a new user you can set the settings within the three groups to your preference, or you can choose to keep the default settings.
