What is the dialog/view used for?

  • Edit and delete styles. System styles and styles that are in use cannot be deleted.

  • There are 6 system styles for the dual display view. You can change how the Display line, Display subline, Display total label, Display total label negative, Display total value and Display total value negative look like.

  • There are 2 system styles for the POS numpad where you can change how it looks like on the POS. The touch button layout view does not show these changes. It can be viewed only on the POS itself.
