You can edit a skin's layout properties to:

• Upload, replace or delete the skin's primary navigation configuration file (navigations.xml)
• Select a widget page template for the skin, which can be overridden at system role and organization level
• Choose between a fixed or dynamic page width
• Configure the access permissions, to allow users to switch their skins and other administrators to view or edit their properties
• Read an updated deployment file (skin.properties) from the server into the LMS

By default, only the user who uploaded a skin to the LMS can edit it. Skin owners can configure their skins' permissions to allow other administrators to view or edit the layout properties of their skins. To edit a skin's layout properties, administrators must have a system role with unrestricted access to the Screen Layout Manager feature in System Roles (Manage Features > System Administration). Roles with read-only access to the Screen Layout Manager feature can only export skins to a ZIP file.
