I would like to be able to control the screen layout dependent on User, Team, and Field Value.
So, if you are in the marketing team you automatically get the "Marketing" layout but crucially, you can't select the "Accounts" layout.
Also, you might want the layout to change for individual contacts. For example I know companies who need a whole bunch of information on the screen when a contact is a prospect, then different information when they are a customer, so presenting a different screen layout depending on the ID/Status value would be ideal in these circumstances.

Hi Jeff,
We have an add-on called LayoutSwitch which resolves part of the issues mentioned here, namely the last one.
Gilles
I have an add-on that will admirably serve your needs.
It is called MultiLayout. MultiLayout allows you to assign layouts according to the contents of any field that you select. The criteria for selection of the layout is also determined by you.
So for instance when you change the contact, and the new contact belongs to a particular company, you get a layout that you have decided should be used for that company. But that is only an example. The choices of filed that is used, and the criteria that the contents of the field need to meet, determine the layout that is displayed.
MultiLayout switches layouts faster than any other layout selector, due totechnology developed specifically for the purpose of speeding up the changeover.
MultiLayout is available through Act!Today at www.ACTtoday.com.au or directly through me, at dbrown@comcen.com.au
A 30 day free trial copy of MultiLayout is available, and purchase can be as little as $A29.00 per unit, depending upon licence numbers required.
Hope we can help!

A question for David of Muvelin Software:
Jeff Granger's key need was to be able to switch layouts based on:
1. Who logs in,
2. What team(s) they belong to,
3. The value(s) in one or more fields
(Remember, Who logs in and what team they belong to are not in any field on the layout.)
From you description, it sounds like your software addresses need #3, but what about #1 & #2 ?
Exponenciel's layout switcher also addresses need #3, but I'm not sure it addresses #1 & #2.
