Manage your profile
Update your name, username, locale, time zone, unit system, and avatar.
Prerequisites: None.
Required permission: None — every user manages their own profile.
Update your profile
Section titled “Update your profile”- Click your avatar at the bottom of the sidebar → Setting.
- On the Your profile tab, update any of: Username, First Name, Last Name, Unit System, Language, Time Zone.
- Click Update profile.
Password fields are on this same tab but are optional — see Reset your password if you want to change it here. See Profile fields for what each field controls.
Change your avatar
Section titled “Change your avatar”You can either upload your own picture or generate a monogram from your initials.
Upload a picture:
- On the Your profile tab, click the avatar image or upload icon.
- Choose a PNG or JPEG file, smaller than 1 MB.
Generate a monogram:
- On the Your profile tab, click the regenerate icon next to your avatar (the circular-arrows icon below it).
A monogram avatar is generated automatically the first time you sign up, before you ever upload a picture — this action replaces it with a freshly generated one.
- Username must be unique within your site (the same value can exist on a different site’s account) and only contains letters and numbers — other characters are stripped automatically.
- Unit System affects the machining calculator and cutting data display; it does not affect Inventory quantities, which are unit-of-measure based, not unit-system based.
- Time Zone and Language override your organization’s own defaults for your session only — they don’t change what other users see.
