You can change the default settings for DMS charts in the GainSeeker System Administration module. Customizing these options to meet your organization's needs can make routine analysis and charting activities faster and more convenient.
Most of these options can also be temporarily changed for a chart using the Settings tab when a DMS chart is first drawn or when it is open. Settings tab settings are temporary in that each time the GainSeeker Charts module is closed, the settings revert back to the default settings established in the GainSeeker System Administration module .

Navigate to the DMS chart defaults settings on the Configurations tab of the System Administration module by following this path:

Use this setting to apply a default chart skin to charts drawn for DMS and OEE retrievals. The default chart skin can be temporarily overridden by the user on the Settings tab.
Chart skins included with GainSeeker are added to each configuration when the System Administration module is initially loaded and to any new configurations you might add.
You can also create and name your own skins, which can have practical advantages for making decisions based on data. For more information, See Chart Skins
