    Inheritable settings allows you to change some (or even all) settings for selected user or group. Inheritable User Settings window look similar to a Global User Settings. To better understand the usability of Inheritable User Settings please look at the settings inheritance hierarchy below:

    User settings

    When a user is logging into system – Earthlight settings loading system takes all settings from the Global User Settings. Next it is checking all Inheritable Group settings and overwrites the settings that are set for a group to which a logged person belong. As a final step it is checking all Inheritable User Settings and again it overwrites the settings that are set for individual user. In other words all settings that aren’t set for User or Group will be taken from the Global User Settings.
