Editing the My Work home page

Use the Edit this page link at the upper right of the My Work home page to change the look of the page, the views or applications that display in the panes, and more. Clicking Edit this page opens the Page Options dialog box. There, you use tabs that correspond to the tabs in My Work to make changes to the components of the page.

Note: You see some components or the My Work page (for example, a logo and a Search utility) regardless of what tab of My Work you are on. To edit these components, once in the Page Options dialog box, you must click the Basics tab. For other components, the dialog box opens by default to the tab that corresponds to the tab you are on.

The following sections describe the changes you can make to My Work from each tab of the Page Options dialog box:

Basics tab

Tip: Changes you make in the Page Options dialog box do not appear until you click Finish in the dialog box. You can change your selections again before you click Finish by clicking Select again, or after you've clicked Finish by clicking Edit this page and repeating the process.
