You can also set it through one of the settings tabs in XGUI

Or manually edit one of the config files in gmod/data/ulx.
Last resort, but, can still be done.

Editing config files is a last resort now?

Today I was watching a graphics design conference sort of thing, and they said our decade will be defined as that of the 'interface'.
So yes Megiddo, I will have to agree it has become last resort  ;D LOL

And, our groups and users.txt files have said for years "don't edit this unless you know what you are doing"
I figure if someone can't figure out how to do it through XGUI without asking here first, then yes, editing a text config file should be their last resort. Not necessarily ours.
Personally, give me a command shell, or give me death.
