How can I change the default SharePoint Designer?
From the General Application Settings page, select Configure SharePoint Designer Settings. This page displays the available options and their current settings. To set these options for a Web application other than the default, select the application using the dropdown control at the top of the form.
Enable Detaching Pages from the Site Definition Enables or disables the ability to detach pages from the site definition. If unchecked, SharePoint Designer only allows you to edit pages in normal mode. The Edit File in Advanced Mode is disabled.
Why does SharePoint Designer not show page layouts?
If unchecked, SharePoint Designer does not display Master Pages or Page Layouts in the Navigation pane. Note: Page layouts also require publishing enabled on the server, so if you have enabled it here but the site is not a publishing site, you will still not see the Page Layouts option in the Navigation pane.
Note: In SharePoint, only the Designers group and above can open SharePoint sites in SharePoint Designer 2010. You can control the following types of access to SharePoint Designer 2010 at the Web application level. You configure these settings using the SharePoint Central Administration Web site, under General Application Settings.
