# Settings

What each setting in Studio's Settings tab changes on a fixture, including bay limits, shelf spacing and shelf edge labels.

***

**Settings** is the last tab of the side panel. Its settings apply to every fixture in the project, and are grouped into five sections that open and close: Fixture, Bays, Shelves, Shelf Edge Labels, and Prices and Language.

The settings change how Studio draws your fixtures. They don’t change any plan in Coplan, so share of space in Compare is unaffected.

## Fixture

- **Fixture Type** sets the kind of fixture drawn: Ambient Shelves, Ambient Gray Shelves, Metal Ambient Shelves, Gray Metal Ambient Shelves, Chilled Shelves, Dark Mode Chilled Shelves, Freezers or Dark Mode Freezers.
- **Visualisation Mode** draws the fixture flat, 2D, or with depth, 2.5D. Not every account has it: ask your account manager.
- **Product Image Display** sets how a product’s image is adjusted when it doesn’t match the shape of its facing: Contain, Fill or Stretch.
- **Fixtures Equal Heights** and **Fixtures Equal Widths** make every fixture as tall as the tallest, or as wide as the widest, so they line up when you compare them.

## Bays

- **Limit Bay Width** sets every bay and shelf to the **Max Bay Width**, in millimetres, with its imperial equivalent below. Any shelf whose products need more room turns red.
- **Limit Bay Heights** turns any bay taller than the **Max Bay Height** red. Nothing is resized.
- **Bays Equal Heights** and **Bays Equal Widths** make every bay in a fixture as tall as its tallest bay, or as wide as its widest.
- **Bay Order**: Low to High puts bay 1 on the left. High to Low puts it on the right.

Use the limits as a guide when you build a plan from scratch. Plans opened from Explore start with Limit Bay Width off.

## Shelves

**Retail Execution Mode** packs products against the left of each shelf, with no space between them and their labels aligned left: the layout retailers expect. Select **Activate** to apply it.

- **Shelf Site Alignment**: Left and Right pack products against that side of the shelf. Center spreads them across the whole shelf.
- **Shelf Space Layout** sets where the spare space goes when products are centred. Between Products keeps each product’s facings together. Between Facings spaces every facing evenly.
- **Shelf Space Between Items** is the smallest gap between products, and between facings of the same product.

> Zero space between products shows you whether a shelf has room for more.

- **Even Out Shelves** makes each shelf as tall as the tallest shelf in the same position in any bay, so shelves line up across the fixture.
- **Shelf Order**: Low to High puts shelf 1 at the bottom. High to Low puts it at the top.

## Shelf Edge Labels

- **Shelf Edge Label Type** sets the style of the labels under products. Depending on your account, the styles are named after retailers, or are called Plain, Alternative, Different, Variant and Substitute. **No Label** removes the labels.
- **Shelf Edge Label Alignment** places each label to the left, centre or right under its product.
- **Show Price** shows or hides the price on each label. Plans opened from Explore start with prices hidden.
- The name and price font sizes change the size of the label’s text.

Show Price and the font sizes appear only while products have labels.

## Prices and Language

**Currency** and **Price Format** set how prices are written on shelf edge labels.
