Preferences

Preferences allow you to control settings for working with territory design layers.

Tab Name	Description
Data	Allows you to control the attributes included in each level of your analysis.
Statistics	Allows you to control the attribute statistics shown in each level of your analysis.
Chart	Allows you to control the attributes included in the Territory Design charting. You can view the chart information in the Territory Design Window on the Chart tab.
Map Display	Allows you to control the territory levels shown with internal boundaries in ArcMap. For example, if you have two territories created from a set of 30 ZIP Codes, the ZIP Code boundaries are displayed within each territory. When a territory is created, the alignment layer boundary files are dissolved to form a contiguous territory polygon. Displaying the boundaries can be helpful if you want to show the total boundaries within each territory or the size distribution of the boundaries.
Extension	Provides a variety of global Territory Design settings: Specify how often Territory Solutions are automatically saved. Show custom map tips. These pop-up menus show statistics for each overall territory and their individual element. Specify auto-tune options (formerly Edit mode). Enabling auto-tuning allows you to work with territories that contain multiple hierarchies. When enabled, boundary lines for the active level of territories are increased and show the geography elements of its base layer, making hierarchy levels easily distinguishable. Also, other territory levels on the map become temporarily invisible. Show background layers for point alignment layers to improve the visualization of territory boundaries. Set the transparency of point alignment layer background polygons. The default setting is 70 percent transparency.
Summary	Allows you to determine the different parameters chosen in the territory creation process. You can view the Summary tab at any time to look up information about your territories.
About	Shows the current installed version of Territory Design. Copyright information is also included.
