The Flexi-metadata Editor allows for creating custom layouts and assigning the layouts to specific users, thus managing specific layouts for specific users. Available sections and their functions are explained:
Layouts 
The layout of a profile is a set of items grouped in specific tabs and assigned to particular users.     Layouts can be managed through the following functions:
New - Create a new layout.
Edit - Edit the name of the tab.
Copy - Create a new layout featuring the current layout's same data (i.e. tabs, items, users).
Delete - Delete the current layout. All its tabs and items would be deleted.
Set as default - Set the current layout as the default layout for all users.
Save [Ctrl-S] - Apply all changes performed to the current layout.
Undo [Ctrl-Z] - Undo the last change performed to the current layout.


Tabs 
The tabs of a layout allow the grouping of items for better management. Tabs can be managed through the following functions:
New [Ctrl-N] - Add a new tab to the current layout.
Change name - Edit the name of the tab.
Sort alphabetically - Sort all tabs in alphabetical order.
Delete [Ctrl-D] - Remove the tab from the current layout. All its items would be deleted.
Move back - Shift the tab to the previous location.
Move forward - Shift the tab to the next location.
Toggle read-only - Set the tab as read-only for the current layout.
Toggle mandatory - Set the Flexi-metadata as "mandatory". See "Mandatory Flexi-metadata".
Right-click on a tab's item will allow you to move it to a different tab quickly.

Items
An item is a Flexi-metadata that can be added to tabs using drag & drop.

Items can be removed by dragging and dropping them back into the "Items" list.

Users
Users from the Personal Data to which the current layout is applied.
Add users group - Search and select a user group to assign the current layout.
Add user - Search and select a user to assign the current layout.
Remove user - Remove the selected user from the list of layout users.
NB: If an added user already has an assigned layout, the former layout will be automatically replaced.
