**Standard options** in the panel editor pane let you change how field data is displayed in your visualizations. When you set a standard option, the change is applied to all fields or series. For more granular control over the display of fields, refer to [Configure overrides](../../configure-overrides/).

You can customize the following standard options:

- **Unit** - Choose which unit a field should use.
- **Min**/**Max** - Set the minimum and maximum values used in percentage threshold calculations or leave these field empty for them to be calculated automatically.
- **Field min/max** - Enable **Field min/max** to have Grafana calculate the min or max of each field individually, based on the minimum or maximum value of the field.
- **Decimals** - Specify the number of decimals Grafana includes in the rendered value.
- **Display name** - Set the display title of all fields. You can use variables in the field title.
- **Color scheme** - Set single or multiple colors for your entire visualization.
- **No value** - Enter what Grafana should display if the field value is empty or null. The default value is a hyphen (-).
