Custom Image Folder

I would like to keep all my custom images in a folder on the file system and call them from there.
I have created a folder on my file system and also created a substitutin string (CUSTOM_IMAGES) in my application to reference this folder.
i/custom_images.
When I call the image using the string <img src="&CUSTOM_IMAGES/apex_banner.jpg">
my application cannot see the image.
If I put the image straight into the normal images folder and then call with
<img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#apex_banner.jpg"> , I can see the image.
Any ideas, where I am going wrong
Cheers
Gus

Hi
I do this for my javascript stuff...
Substitution String = JS_PATH
Substitution Value = /i/my_folder/js/
Then in the page template I refer to this
<script type="text/javascript" src="&JS_PATH.my_file.js"></script>Never had a problem with this approach.
Where abouts are you using this reference?
Cheers

How to use custom images in Apex 4.1 with EPG

I just ported over an application from Apex 3.2/10g using Apache to a new server using Apex 4.1/11g using EPG and none of my custom images work. When using Apache, all I had to do was copy the file over to the /i/Custom images folder and I could reference it on any of my pages. I copied the entire /Custom folder to the new server and that doesn't seem to do the trick. I've seen some posts that talk about having to use FTP (why?) or something to get this to work. Can someone please explain what is going on here and what I need to do to get this working?

With EPG, the images aren't accessed from a directory. They are actually stored inside the database. The FTP process actually gets redirected so that the image gets stored inside Oracle rather than being written to a file. There are numerous articles and such detailing exactly how to do this.
One is here:

Apex listener images folder issue

Hi expert,
I'm newbies in oracle apex listener and would like to know more about oracle apex listener from all the expertise.
My situation is like that i would like to install apex listener (standalone mode) in a server to browser apex application from another server with oracle database 11g and oracle apex development.
My installation step as below;
1. I copy images folder from database server apex\images folder to apex listener installation folder before i install apex listener (called "apexlistener").
2. Run cmd "java -Dapex.home=c:\apexlistener -Dapex.images=c:\apexlistener\images -Dapex.port=8585 -Dapex.erase -jar c:\apexlistener\apex.war" to install apex listener.
Just a question, if i amended oracle apex application in database server, should i need to copy the images folder again to apex listener server?
What is the main source in images folder used in oracle apex listener server?
My experience is i tried to copy images folder from database server A with apex application (in runtime mode) to apexlistener folder server B. And i configure the database connection to server c with same oracle apex application as well. I tried to browser oracle apex application in server c from server B. I found out my apex application is not running properly due to the javascript is not installed properly. I would like to ask, is the images files in apex listener server must same with apex application server?
Anyone have idea on automatically start apex listener when the server reboots?
How to run apex listener in backend?
Hope can get some idea and solution from all the expertise!
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Apex Junior

>
The images folder has a relation with the Apex Version installed on the database, not with the applications in the Apex.
Depends on what you mean by amending applications. If you add custom CSS, JS ,etc to the application , and are not uploading the files to WORKSPACE_IMAGES, then you need to copy the external files to the images folder. But not copy it all over again.
If no custom files then no need to copy the images folder.

As stated earlier, the contents of the images (/i/) folder are related to the Apex Version. If your two db servers have different versions of Apex then the same images folder will not work with both. It will work with only one, the one that has the Apex Version compatible with the images folder.

How to suggest without knowing OS?
You can write a batch file that runs on bootup to achieve this.

Is there a way to recover an overwritten image folder in a site root?

I mistakenly did a 'get' of the 'images' folder in my remote site and it overwrote my local site file, which contained many new photoshopped jpgs that I had spent hours creating and had recently placed there for the site work.
I am working in CS5 on a Windows 7 desktop PC.
The overwritten images folder I want to recover was stored on my 'z' drive (public drive), which I use for all my work so that I can also access it via my laptop (networked) if working in another area of the house.
Is there any magic recovery for this overwritten file folder or should I just start the many hours of work over again?
To add to the stress, the site must go live in a few days to please my customer.
URGENT & FRANTIC,
Sally

Hello Sally,
in this case and under the condition that you have already unsuccessful scanned/searched all positions of your hard drive with a file-manager, there is still that possibility which you should do as quickly as possible, without any other file operations. I didn't see your thread earlier, hope it's not too late, yet!
If you're lucky, some of your file are still intact on your hard disk and you get your file back with an "unerase tool", like Norton-Utilities. You could try Google search too. A (German) tool finds here: http://www.chip.de/downloads/O-amp-O-UnErase_13014611.html.
Before a file is deleted completely, the operating system removes only the first letter of the file's name. PHYSICALLY the file is still situated on your hard disk(s). The unerase tools can detect it and it draws up a list which will give you a detailed record of these files which can be recovered. Here a screenshot of my German "Unerase Tool":
"Wiederherstellen" means something like "recover".
Good luck!

I am trying to make an Edge Animation work on a CMS. I used "AdobeEdge.loadComposition" to find the .JS file, but it is looking for the images in the "/image" folder. I would like to store the images in another place. Please help me accomplish this.

Here's the code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="http://animate.adobe.com/runtime/5.0.1/edge.5.0.1.min.js"></script>
<style>
    .edgeLoad-EDGE-4084323 { visibility:hidden; }
</style
<script>
   AdobeEdge.loadComposition('/media/products/edge_script/channels', 'EDGE-4084323', {
    scaleToFit: "none",
    centerStage: "none",
    minW: "0",
    maxW: "undefined",
    width: "361px",
    height: "268px"
}, {"dom":{}}, {"dom":{}});
</script>
<div align="center">
<div id="Stage" class="EDGE-4084323">
</div>
</div>
Thank you for your help.

Ahhhhhh, ok. Figured this one out after digging more.
Here's the answer from another post. Hope it helps someone!
If you need to set an absolute folder url, or you are pulling the content from a server that does not host the content, you can manually update the <projectname>_edge.js file to specify the directory:
(function($, Edge, compId){
//images folder
var im='<SERVER/FOLDER>/images/';
Just beware that if you re-publish the files, you'll need to redo any custom modifications. I do this for off-server projects and it works very well so long as you make all the changes in each JS file where you need to specify the exact path.

Sap/bw/Mime/Customer/Images Path in SAP BW Server

Hi,
while developing the Web Reports, Our consultants has used some logos in the templates in the development server. These logos are appearing in development properly. I have transported these templates to the quality where these icons are not displaying.
Post that I found these icons are picked up from from the location '/sap/bw/Mime/Customer/Images/headjetlogo.gif'. I am trying to copy these files from development to quality. But I am unable to find this path on development server.
Can anyone please help me on how do I find these files.
Thanks
Ramesh Ganji

hi Ramesh,
when we attach the file to dev, system will ask for 'local object' or specify package and save to request to be transported.
since it's not 'insert' by you, try right click in SE80 and check if there is 'object directory entry', change the package and it will prompt request or right click the file and find menu 'export' or 'download', it will then save to you local pc (specify a folder).
after that go to production, se80, right click the folder and 'import mime objects' from the file downloaded.
hope this helps.

Custom images in Oracle BI

I needed to add the custom images in my BI dashboard and followed the same guidance provided on OTN threads to add the images in the 3 diffrent directory locations in my 11g setup. After Adding it to the 3 different path I restarted my presentation services. Now when i go to my conditional formatting tab and i provide the path in custom image field as fmap:images/myimage.jpg and say ok I see the image in the conditional formatting tab. But then i dont see the image on my dashboard. So the problem is the image is comin up in the conditional formatting window but not on actual dashboard. I tried clearing the browser cache and temporary internet files but still no use.

Hi,
the proplem with you image size only, let try it exsting oracle bi default image it will work keep it the same size of your image and the place it corresponding folder then restart your all bi sevices
Refer this link: i*t's obiee10g try the same method in obiee11g..it should work*
http://gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/fmap
http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2007/09/27/oracle-bi-ee-101332-changing-logos-in-the-answers-title-view/
http://addsrikanth.wordpress.com/2008/06/10/displaying-images-in-obiee/
if its not working above method please
Make sure below thinks
In Ideal situation Oracle can accept on that image which is already present in Oracle BI. But if you want to add new picture then first you have to change instanceconfig.xml file which is present in BIData\web\config. and add the following line
<HardenXSS>false</HardenXSS>
that they have given in Presnetation services Administrative tool guide.
and now add the desireable picture in image folder that is
BIHome\web\app\res\s_oracle10\images
And
BIHome\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\analytics\analytics\res\s_oracle10\images
check which is suitable.
Now use fmap: for adding picture.
Restart all the services related to BI. all are not needed but I dont know which one so restart all.
Now I think you can get the Answer
It should work

MDT 2010 Windows 7 custom image import problelm

I am unable to import a Windows 7 OS from a wim image file any more. I get "Path 'C:\Distribution\Operating Systems\Old OS Folder' does not exist" when I try to import. I believe the folder it is looking for was one where I had imported a custom image with setup files. I have since added Windows 7 operating systems from the DVD for source files and had deleted the image operating system it is looking for. I can still import a Windows XP custom image just fine.
It is creating the folder and copying the wim, but it does not show up in the Deployment Workbench under operating systems. Any ideas? I assume the problem is coming from having imported the wim with setup files previously.

Hi,
just came across similar problem.
Custom .wim image not visible after importing to MDT.
imagex /info returns long wim description for another custom wim but much shorter for this one.
I tried to change wim name and description property - but nothing worked for me.
So I applied the original image to folder and then recaptured it with imagex I am using (newest WAIK).
Now the imagex /info is ok.
Btw you cannot notice the difference with
dism /Get-WimInfo
It is now visible in MDT.
Can you please explain what you did.
i am using image capture cd generated using SCCM to capture the wim file.
1 image i imported successfully. Every image since then after import it does not show up in deployment workbench. i have no idea what to do.

Clear custom image Q

Somehow the custom image on my personal card in Address Book shows up on hundreds of my other contacts in Address Book. It gets very tedious deleting the custom image on each card one by one. Is there a bulk command to delete the custom image from all cards?

hello, I solved it for real, as asked.
I copied the System icons for guest user, converted them to tiff, and packed them with instructions, basically adding them to the user icons folder.
It needs to be known to people that the user login picture you have for OS X is used for your adress book. Changing the icon in iChat for example to the mobileme-cloud didn't affect the one in address book, nor the login one for OS X. It is a useful request to have a system wide option in the accounts Preferences (IMHO) to set the desired picture once and for all system wide and for internet visibility (iChat)
Here you go:

Shared volumes with custom image

I have a number of shared volumes that have a custom image preview. (instead of the normal file folder, globe, etc.)
Many pass the custom image along to those who mount the shared drives but several do not.
I have not be able to determine why or even narrow it down as there doesn't seem to be a common denominator.
Does anyone know what the issue may be?

Whenever you paste an icon onto a disk or folder, the Finder creates a .VolumeIcon.icns or Icon? file, which contains your custom icon. The inability to see the custom icon may simply be a permissions issue. Check to see that the icons files have at least read-only permissions for the users who are connecting.

IIS Virtual Directory and Application Pool for Large Images folder

I have a large images folder used for Upload and Download with approx. 1.5 TB for a web site.
My Website use AppPool_A.
For performance reasons, do I need to create different Virtual Directory and different Application Pool (AppPool_B) for Images folder. Assuming, if the number of users increase in upload/download images the memory & cpu utilization will be
more and App Pool recycle happens more often. And other impact is if Website and Images are in same App Pool, the application performance slow.
Pls. suggest

WDS for custom image deployment via PXE

I've recently spun up a 2012R2 server and I'd like to use it so I can netboot clients to it and install a custom image on the machine, no hassle. I have figured out how to take an image from a Windows 7 install disk and add drivers to it.
However, I'm wondering the best way that I could configure an image to use that has all programs, profiles, updates, and drivers on it for a 'universal' install. Is this possible?
For example, can I have a 32-bit image that has Chrome, FireFox, and some other programs on it, complete with any drivers that might be needed for NIC and WLAN cards, graphics adapters, etc? And then a 64-bit image for the same thing. Ideally, these
would house drivers for any of our machines, so I could PXE boot a 64- or 32-bit desktop or laptop, regardless of the model (They're all one manufacturer) and have them install the image and be configured, ready to go?
I would also like to know how I could create a custom image/ISO from a machine that is already ready-to-go as a template.
Thank you for answers in advance.
If it helps, i'm on a Windows 8.1 x64 machine myself, but the machines I'd like to image are Windows 7 (both x86 and x64).

Yea. In a nut shell:
1. Do the install and create the needless account the setup process forces you to create.
2. On first log in enable the original default Administrator account and give it a password
3. Log in with the default Administrator account.
4. Delete the local account that setup forced you to create
5. Go to Advanced system Settings --> User Profiles, and remove the profile for that account. This is important,...this removes the registry entries for the Profile as well (just deleting the folder structure under "C:\Users" does not,
and problems can result).
6. Build your image model from this point using the original default local Administrator account. This is the only account that Sysprep will leave on the machine when it is run. Note the machine is not a Domain Member when I am at this point.
I only join the machine that I apply the image to when I finally deploy the machine to be used .
7. Run Sysprep on the machine to prepare it for duplication, then shutdown or reboot. When starting up you do not want to allow it to boot into the OS or you will have to rerun Sysprep again. You can use WDS to "capture" an image
after doing a network boot from the Nic. You can also boot the machine using a Windows PE bootdisk and manually capture an image with ImageX (comes with WAIK for Win7). But ImageX is commandline only and annoying,...there is a GUI alternative called
GImageX (google it). Then manually copy the captured image to the WDS Server. Note when you capture an image,..you are only capturing the Boot Partition,...not the entire drive.
The details of all this you can sort out by studying "how to use" WDS and WAIK (Win7). That should put you on the right track.
A source for creating a bootable Windows PE disk is here.

Lock Screen Custom Image Stuck on Load for Windows 8.1

I recently upgraded to Windows 8.1, but it reset my custom lock screen image. I tried re-applying it but the lock screen preview in the settings is stuck on a load loop. Does anyone know why that is and why it won't set my custom image as the
new lock screen image?

Hi all,
I've experienced the same issue and it disappeared after doing some weird steps.
First about the problem:
I have Surface Pro tablet, updated to Windows 8.1 many months ago. However yesterday this issue happened for the first time (not sure what triggered it) and continued today as well, even after restarting:
- Charms bar > Settings > Personalize. Click on background color or Accent color palette to try to change color: the pane and Start menu behind freezes and doesn't react on anything except for pressing Windows button on tablet, that throws back to
desktop. But when you return to that menu it appears the color has been changed after all (as much as could have been done in one click before it froze).
- Can't change lock screen: I didn't move the image selected there and previous images, they are still located at the same folder. But after selecting an image loading wheel spins and image never updates.
Fix:
After reading here that this replicates with account picture for some people, I wanted to check this on my tablet as well. My account picture shown the current image and 2 previous images to the right. When clicking first of those, nothing changed. When
clicking on the second one it shown the image from the first selected as account picture, and vice versa - when clicking on the first again it shown the second pic selected as account picture. After browsing and selecting other image, it didn't update in account
picture, but after going out from the menu and back again it appeared that the account image updated after all.
After that all started working normal again - can select account picture, change lock screen and personalize without problems. Weird, but it worked.
