# Global Settings

The global settings offer different options to adjust the [user interface](/intelligent-virtual-platform/home/ivp-planning/user-interface.md) and the [floor plan](/intelligent-virtual-platform/home/ivp-planning/user-interface/the-floor-plan.md). They can be changed via the [settings panel](/intelligent-virtual-platform/home/ivp-planning/user-interface/settings-panel.md).

## Settings

* **Unit**: Set the measurement unit used in the project. Available units are *mm*, *cm*, *dm*, *m* and *ft*.
* **Floor Material**: Change the visual appearance of the floor in the scene. You can choose between *Invisible*, *Light Gray*, *Gray*, *Dark Gray* and *Concrete*.
* **Rotation Amount**: Change the angular step (in degrees) used when rotating objects. You can set a value between *1* and *90* degrees.
* **Snapping Distance**: Change how close objects must be to [snap](/intelligent-virtual-platform/home/ivp-planning/machines/snapping.md) into place either with each other or with the grid when moving or placing them. You can set a value between *1* and *1000* millimeters.
* **Path Snapping Angle**: Change the angular step (in degrees) used when snapping rotation or directions along a path. You can set a value between *0.001* and *360* degrees.
* **Ground plan X**: Change the ground plane size along the X-axis (in meters). You can set a value between *10* and *1000* meters.
* **Ground plan Y**: Change the ground plane size along the Y-axis (in meters). You can set a value between *10* and *1000* meters.
* **Wall Height**: Change the wall height. You can set a value between *1* and *50* meters.
* **Camera Speed**: Control how fast the camera moves when navigating the scene. You can set a value (factor) between *0* and *1*.
* **UI Scale**: Adjust the scaling of the user interface elements. You can set a custom value between *65* and *125* percent or choose a preset.
* **Grid**: Show or hide the [grid](/intelligent-virtual-platform/home/ivp-planning/user-interface/the-grid.md) in the 2D view.
* **Grid Origin**: Show or hide the [origin point of the grid](/intelligent-virtual-platform/home/ivp-planning/user-interface/the-grid.md#grid-origin) in the 2D view.
* **Animations**: Toggle the [animations](/intelligent-virtual-platform/home/ivp-planning/machines/animations.md) of single objects.
* **Overhead View**: Allow animations to be visible in the 2D view. This setting can have an impact on performance.
* **Walls**: Show or hide the walls surrounding your scene.
* **Ceiling**: Show or hide the ceiling of your scene.
* **Analytics**: Enable or disable the Analytics.
