In the Setting tab of the Events form, you can customize a setting using Modify or Reset. When you Modify a setting, the new value applies only to the selected event. When you Reset a setting, the value will change to the default value defined on the Event Type Setting form.

Note that some settings also require event validation in order to take effect. For details, see Event Setting Types.
