Customizing
Colours, layout, names and pictures: almost everything you see can be changed, and every change shows at once.
Overview widgets
- Open the overview and click Customize at the top right.
- Drag a widget by its handle, resize it at the bottom right corner, remove it with ×. Widgets snap into a 12-column grid and gaps close by themselves.
- Add widget asks for the type first (notices, system, storage, apps, media, own content), then the element: a single app as a tile, processor, memory, network, uptime, free space, the media library, a note or a welcome text.
- Click Done to save, Cancel to discard.
Every user has their own layout, friends included; they only get widgets they have rights for. Administrators also set the default for administrators and the default for friends in customize mode. Reset to default removes your own layout. The keyboard works too: Tab to a widget, arrow keys to move, with Shift to resize.
Appearance
| Tab | What you can change |
|---|---|
| Colors | Nine presets or any colour of your own (lightened automatically for the dark theme), light, dark or like the device, sidebar like the page, dark or in the accent colour |
| Structure | Corners round, medium or square; density compact, normal or airy; headings with or without serifs; rename or hide menu entries |
| Logo & images | Your name and logo instead of CloudZH, a picture and texts for the sign-in page, the welcome text for friends |
| Language & formats | Default language, date and number formats |
Logo, favicon, buttons and charts take the accent colour. Overview, Security, Appearance and Settings always stay in the menu; hidden pages are still reachable with Ctrl K.
Profile pictures
My account → Profile: click the picture or Upload, move and zoom the crop, save. CloudZH stores a 256 × 256 image and drops location data from the photo. Administrators can change or remove the pictures of other users in the user window.
Hiding addresses
IP and MAC addresses appear blurred until you click them, handy for screenshots. The eye button at the top reveals all of them for the tab. Choose what to blur under My account → Appearance.
