Layout

Launcher position and offset, corner radii, which tabs the widget has, and which tab opens first

The Layout section in the Look & feel group sets where the launcher sits, how round the corners are, and which tabs visitors get. It follows the draft-and-Save model.

The offsets are saved with the widget. An offset set in the embed code on your site wins over the saved one.

This browser can also hold its own offset, set when you copy the install code. If it does, a note appears under the offsets: This browser has its own launcher offset. It wins over the saved values in the preview and in the install code. Click Clear browser offset to remove it.

A tab that is off does not appear in the bottom bar. When only one tab is on, the bar disappears.

Default tab is the tab the widget opens on. A new widget has all five tabs on and opens on Home. If the chosen tab is off, the widget falls back to Messages, then Home, Help and News. It lists only the tabs that are on, and the Messenger tab is called Messages there. If you switch off the current default tab, the editor moves the default to the first tab that is still on.
