Global settings
Global settings and parameters do not change when driver profiles are changed. They remainthe same regardless of which driver profile is cur-rently active. Keyboard layout is an example of a global setting. If driver profile X is used to add additional key-board languages, these languages will also beavailable for driver profile Y. The settings for key-board layout are not saved to a specific driverprofile - the settings are global.
Personal settings
If driver profile X has been used to e.g., set the brightness for the center display, driver profile Ywill not be affected by this setting. It will only besaved to driver profile X because brightness set-ting is a personal setting.
