NAME

       gnome-control-center - Configure GNOME settings

SYNOPSIS

       gnome-control-center [OPTION...] [PANEL] [ARG...]

DESCRIPTION

       gnome-control-center is a graphical user interface to configure various aspects of GNOME.

       When run without arguments, the shell displays the overview, which shows all available configuration panels. The overview allows to open
       individual panels by clicking on them. It also has a search entry to find panels by searching keywords.

       It is also possible to specify a panel name as commandline argument to go directly to that panel. Individual panels may accept further
       arguments to specify which tab to open (for multi-tabbed panels) or which item to display (for panels with lists).

       Note that gnome-control-center is not meant to expose each and every setting that is available. The settings that can be found here
       represent what is considered useful and commonly needed options. For more exotic or uncommon options, you can look at gnome-tweak-tool or
       the gsettings commandline utility.
