+
+The {pve} user interface consists of four regions.
+
+[horizontal]
+
+Header:: On top. Shows status information and contains buttons for
+most important actions.
+
+Resource Tree:: At the left side. A navigation tree where you can select
+specific objects.
+
+Content Panel:: Center region. Selected objects display configuration
+options and status here.
+
+Log Panel:: At the bottom. Displays log entries for recent tasks. You
+can double-click on those log entries to get more details, or to abort
+a running task.
+
+NOTE: You can shrink and expand the size of the resource tree and log
+panel, or completely hide the log panel. This can be helpful when you
+work on small displays and want more space to view other content.
+
+
+Header
+~~~~~~
+
+On the top left side, the first thing you see is the Proxmox
+logo. Next to it is the current running version of {pve}. In the
+search bar nearside you can search for specific objects (VMs,
+containers, nodes, ...). This is sometimes faster than selecting an
+object in the resource tree.
+
+The right part of the header contains four buttons:
+
+[horizontal]
+Documentation :: Opens a new browser window showing the reference documentation.
+
+Create VM :: Opens the virtual machine creation wizard.
+
+Create CT :: Open the container creation wizard.
+
+User Menu :: Displays the identity of the user you're currently logged in
+with, and clicking it opens a menu with user-specific options.
++
+In the user menu, you'll find the 'My Settings' dialog, which provides local UI
+settings. Below that, there are shortcuts for 'TFA' (Two-Factor Authentication)
+and 'Password' self-service. You'll also find options to change the 'Language'
+and the 'Color Theme.' Finally, at the bottom of the menu is the 'Logout'
+option.
+

+My Settings
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+[thumbnail="screenshot/gui-my-settings.png"]
+
+The 'My Settings' window allows you to set locally stored settings. These
+include the 'Dashboard Storages' which allow you to enable or disable specific
+storages to be counted towards the total amount visible in the datacenter
+summary. If no storage is checked the total is the sum of all storages, same
+as enabling every single one.
+
+Below the dashboard settings you find the stored user name and a button to
+clear it as well as a button to reset every layout in the GUI to its default.
+
+On the right side there are 'xterm.js Settings'. These contain the following
+options:
+
+[horizontal]
+Font-Family :: The font to be used in xterm.js (e.g. Arial).
+
+Font-Size :: The preferred font size to be used.
+
+Letter Spacing :: Increases or decreases spacing between letters in text.
+
+Line Height :: Specify the absolute height of a line.
+
+
+
+Resource Tree
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This is the main navigation tree. On top of the tree you can select
+some predefined views, which change the structure of the tree
+below. The default view is the *Server View*, and it shows the following
+object types:
+
+[horizontal]
+Datacenter:: Contains cluster-wide settings (relevant for all nodes).
+
+Node:: Represents the hosts inside a cluster, where the guests run.
+
+Guest:: VMs, containers and templates.
+
+Storage:: Data Storage.
+
+Pool:: It is possible to group guests using a pool to simplify
+management.
+
+
+The following view types are available:
+
+[horizontal]
+Server View:: Shows all kinds of objects, grouped by nodes.
+
+Folder View:: Shows all kinds of objects, grouped by object type.
+
+Pool View:: Show VMs and containers, grouped by pool.
+
+
+Log Panel
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+The main purpose of the log panel is to show you what is currently
+going on in your cluster. Actions like creating an new VM are executed
+in the background, and we call such a background job a 'task'.
+
+Any output from such a task is saved into a separate log file. You can
+view that log by simply double-click a task log entry. It is also
+possible to abort a running task there.
+
+Please note that we display the most recent tasks from all cluster nodes
+here. So you can see when somebody else is working on another cluster
+node in real-time.
+
+NOTE: We remove older and finished task from the log panel to keep
+that list short. But you can still find those tasks within the node panel in the
+'Task History'.
+
+Some short-running actions simply send logs to all cluster
+members. You can see those messages in the 'Cluster log' panel.
+
+
+Content Panels
+--------------
+
+When you select an item from the resource tree, the corresponding
+object displays configuration and status information in the content
+panel. The following sections provide a brief overview of this
+functionality. Please refer to the corresponding chapters in the
+reference documentation to get more detailed information.
