Error description
The DOORS Info Center for this section Configuring ? Configuring the Rational DOORS display? Setting your display scheme states 'You can use the default display scheme for the database, which is set by the database manager, or a different display scheme.' This statement can mislead one to think that the 'database manager' is able to define and a new database-wide default display scheme under the DOORS Database Properties ? General ? Default display scheme. However, you can only use the 4 display schemes listed there: Modern Classic International Modern International Classic You can not use a custom scheme a 'database manager' has defined in their own Tools ? Options ? Display menu. It seems that it should be explicitly stated that the only other 'different display scheme' that can be used are customized per user in their own Tools ? Options ? Display menu and not a database wide setting.
