SUMMARY
|
You'd like to personolize the Web Access to suit your company's color and fonts.
|
|
SOLUTION |
You'll need to create a new skin, or modify an existing one.
There are two methods to do this; one is by using the SDK and the other is manually.
1. Creating or Modifying a Skin
Modifying an existing skin
Go
to $installdir$\E-BI\Config\Skins (in a default installation,
$installdir$ is C:\Program Files\Panorama). Each skin has its own
folder. Go to the folder that has the skin you'ld like to change, edit
the skin.txt file in it, and enter new parameters that suit your needs.
After this, you're not required to continue to Step 2.
Tip: If you'd like to change the default skin used by the Web Access, just edit the skin.txt file found in the \Default folder.
Creating a skin with the SDK
If you'd like to use the SDK, open pnSkinBuilder.exe found
in $installdir$\E-BI\Utils (in a default installation, $installdir$ is
C:\Program Files\Panorama). Design your skin, save it, and then proceed
to the next step, Adding the skin.
Creating a skin manually
All
the skins are stores in $installdir$\E-BI\Config\Skins. In this folder,
you'll find a single folder for each you have, and a file
called
Skins.xml, which is a list of all the skins used. Now go to the
\Default folder, open the skin.txt file, and copy off of its contents.
Now go back to the \Skins folder, create a new folder bearing the
desired name of your new skin - "MyNewSkin". In this folder, create a
new skin.txt file, paste what you've previously copied, and enter new
values to each of the parameters listed. The parameter names are
self-explanatory; if something is unclear, please contact the Technical
Support Team. Save the file, and proceed to the next step.
2. Adding your new skin to the list of used skins
Open the skins.xml file found under $installdir$\E-BI\Config\Skins, and
add new lines in it to include your new skin, like so:
<Skins>
<Skin Folder="Steel">
<Caption Language="en" Value="Steel"/>
<Caption Language="he" Value="Steel"/>
</Skin>
<Skin Folder="Desert">
<Caption Language="en" Value="Desert"/>
<Caption Language="he" Value="Desert"/>
</Skin>
<Skin Folder="Iceblue">
<Caption Language="en" Value="Iceblue"/>
<Caption Language="he" Value="Iceblue"/>
</Skin>
<Skin Folder="Sunrise">
<Caption Language="en" Value="Sunrise"/>
<Caption Language="he" Value="Sunrise"/>
</Skin>
<Skin Folder="Default">
<Caption Language="en" Value="Default"/>
<Caption Language="he" Value="Default"/>
</Skin>
<Skin Folder="Dashboard">
<Caption Language="en" Value="Dashboard"/>
<Caption Language="he" Value="Dashboard"/>
</Skin>
<Skin Folder="MyNewSkin">
<Caption Language="en" Value="MyNewSkin"/>
<Caption Language="he" Value="MyNewSkin"/>
</Skin>
</Skins>
Save the file, and you're done.
