### Configure the IRE

The Configure menu allows you to set up the IRE according to the way you work.

In the Configure menu, you will find other menus that address specific aspects of customizing the IRE:

- Creation options defines default control sizes, styles, and text for when a control is added to a window or dialog box using the Default Creation Option dialog box
- CUA compliance sets the IBM Common User Access (CUA) compliance rules through the CUA Compliance dialog box
- Default usage defines default paths, grid size, and auto-label prefixes, as well as the key combinations for the mouse using the Default Usage dialog box
- DFM registration defines additional display units and their corresponding dialog box factors using the Dialog Units Definition dialog box. It also edits existing definitions that can be used with the Show Limits button on the toolbar.
- PMCX and temporary controls defines custom controls that utilize the Control Extensions (PMCX) for use in the IRE using the PMCX/Temporary Controls Definition dialog box.
