Introduction
This guide is designed to help your Company's Field2Base Administrator(s) further customize your Company's Field2Base environment both on the client and server side. Just a few examples of Configs would be:
- Adding otherwise hidden UI elements to the Mobile Forms client
- Controlling the compression rates of pictures for sending larger files
Configs can be customized for the whole Company or for a specific User.

Per F2B Support "ImageCompressionQuality" is a quality setting so 1 = lowest quality (max compression) and 100 = max quality (least compression). Just want to clarify this even if only for my own future reference.
