  • How can I customize the skin of my AIR app

    Hi all,
    I have created an AIR app from my RoboHelp v7 WebHelp.
    Works and looks quite nice. Great. It's just that it did not use the WebHelp skin I created. It uses some default skin.
    How can I customize the skin of my AIR app? When I run the RH Packager for Adobe AIR, I get a dlg box come up, called, "General Options - RoboHelp Packager for Adobe AIR" and it offers me a few default skins, but it does not offer me the skin I made for my WebHelp.
    I also heard that if you learn FLEX you might be able to change the skins.
    TIA

    Heya,
    In order to change it alle just set it up as ordinary html webpage so heres and example of css:
    style.css - In the main directory of your app.
    body {
         margin:0;
         padding:0;
    #wrap {
         margin:0;
         padding:0;
         text-aling:left;
    #header {
         padding:2px;
         background:#000;
         color:#fff;

         background:#ccc;
    #footer {
         padding:2px;
         background:#000;
         color:#fff;
    Now for the html file:
    <html>
         <head>
              <title>My App</title>
              <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen" />
              // Scripts go here
         </head>
         <body>
              <div id="wrap">

  • How can I customize a skin starting with the Oracle Skin?

    I understand that when customizing skins, you start by over-riding the 'simple' skin.
    Where can I find the CSS file for the default oracle skin that I can use as a starting point to jump-start the skin customization? What I am trying to do is customize the skin, but I want to use the CSS for the Oracle skin as a starting point to over-ride the simple skin - I really only need to make a few tweaks to the Oracle skin CSS and don't want to start from scratch with the simple skin.
    Any help much appreciated.

    ps - all I need to do right now is set up some new styleclasses that I can use to format text-related components. in the future I'd like to be able to format tables - i.e., change format not to display borders, change table heading colors, etc. - is this possible with the 2nd approach based on modifying oracle-desktop.xss?

  • How can I customize the stylesheet of webdynpro applications?

    Hello experts,
    how can I customize the Look & Feel (e.g. background color) of webdynpro applications?
    I refer e.g. to UWL which is opened by a task link in an email and opens as as webdynpro application in a separate window. It appears in the typical SAP blue. I would like to change the color.
    The portal´s customization does not affect webdynpro applications.
    Thanks in advance for any hint.

    Hi Avi
    Yep, that's what you get with AIR output. You have to live
    with the skins the AIR layout provides. I suppose if you are a FLEX
    developer you might be able to change the skins. But it is what it
    is.
    You might consider submitting a Wish Form to ask the
    development team to allow us more flexibility with AIR skins. Or to
    even create a way for the AIR app to use elements of the WebHelp
    skins.
    Click
    here to visit the Wish Form.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Customize the skin of Whiteboard toolbar in LCCS

    Hello,
    I am new towards Flex, from the video tutorials i have learned how to use Adobe LiveCycle Collaboration Service,
    but i want to customize the skin of toolbar of Shared Whiteboard, can anyone help me implementing it,
    if i want to create customize buttons instead using default toolbar of Shared Whiteboard, how to do that,
    Thanks in advance,
    Rajiv

    Hi Rajiv,
    Watching the video tutorials is a good first step in learning LCCS.
    But there is a lot more you can do.
    I'd recommend that you spend a good amount of time looking at the Sample Apps (sdk\com.adobe.lccs\sampleApps\) with the docs (sdk\com.adobe.lccs\docs\) by your side. Try running the apps. Make some modifications to the code.
    That should help you move on to the next step which is to be comfortable writing your own code.
    Cheers,

  • How do I customize the login page?

    Hi, floks:
    How do I customize the login page?
    Can I just create a page with login portlet in it? what do I put as on Success URL,
    if I choose to go to the home page?
    thanks.
    null

    You can create a page and add a login portlet to it.Make it accesible to public.
    change the default page of the user "public" to the page you have created.(by default it is WELCOME)
    if there is an error in the user name or the password entered the portal still navigates to the default single-sign on page.(You have not changed the sign on page still)
    To change this page look at on-line help.
    search with string "customize" in online help

  • How do you customize the toolbar in Windows XP?

    How do you customize the toolbar in Windows XP? When I right click on the menu bar the "Customize..." option is there but it does absolutely nothing.
    Which brings me to the rhetorical question as to why it was necessary to shuffle everything around, was it broken? Did it not work? Since 2006 I've moved my mouse pointer almost instinctively to the left side of the screen, now all of a sudden I have to go right, is there a point?
    This is like supermarkets that as soon as you have figured out where everything is, they shuffle everything around and now you are stuck in mystery shopping. At least they have economic reasons. Meanwhile Firefox seems disposed to make itself look more like Chrome, but hey if I wanted Chrome I'd get it.

    Nope... Thanks, but Safe Mode does not do the trick. Oh sure you can move the buttons around and rearrange things to your liking, unfortunately it does not stay that way once you get out of Safe Mode.
    I guess if you use an XP machine you are doomed to use FF's interpretation of what it should look like, which is ass backwards from what it has been for the past FIVE YEARS!!! Why not? It seems XP users are now the Freddo's of computing.
    Someone should go to you developer's homes move everything around, forks in the basement, beds in the bathroom, TV up in the attic with the mice, dining table outside on the porch, see how you like it.

    Hi Aline,
    Goto SE80, Under Repository browser Select BSP Applications and Enter THTMLB_STYLES.
    You will see the Pages with Flow logic and MIMEs under THTMLB_STYLES. Open folder MIMEs-->sap_skins where you will find different skins. Open folder Default and try changing the file as per your requirement.
    For logo goto Styling>Lshape>logo.png under Default SAP Skin.
    Hope this helps.

    P.S.The above information is for CRM 5.2 and above. I hope it is same for CRM 5.0, you can try.

  • How can I make the skin like rock ?

    How can I make the skin of a dramatic BW image of a Boxer look like peeling lava skin ?  I know that's a funny way to say it, but I want to make him look like rock and lava with hard cracks and such. Anyone have some ideas ?

    I'm sorry Myron, I didn't mean to cause your thread to go in the wrong direction.  I was feeling a bit frisky after a long day.
    Making skin look like something else is not a task I do normally, but if I were to want to experiment I'd probably try things like pasting a section of rock over the top of the skin in question, then set the mixing mode to Luminosity (so that just the luminance of the rock surface is used with the color of the face.  Use masking and partial mixing to help blend it.
    Seek (or capture) rock imagery with the light coming from the same direction, and with a similar level of detail.  That will help make it seem more believable.
    There may be others (I hope) who will chime in with more specific instructions or other tricks o' the trade that they've found to work.
    Best of luck, and please don't be afraid to show your results.

  • How can I adjust the skin color of only one person in the photo (Elements 11)

    How can I adjust the skin color of only one person in the photo (Elements 11)?
    Thanks for your help.

    From your question, I assume you know how to do it for all persons :
    Menu : Enhance/Adjust color/adjust color for skin tones
    So what you have to do is to do the color correction on a layer copy. Concentrate on the person to enhance and ignore the rest of the picture.
    When you are satisfied, add a mask to the layer copy and fill it with black.
    Set your foreground color to white
    In the layer palette, click on the mask icon on the right of the layer icon.
    Then use a brush to paint white on the skin of the person to reveal the correction.

  • How do I customize the Firefox 4 error page?

    how do I customize the error message... the one with "server not found" and "try again"

    FF4 combined a bunch of files into [https://developer.mozilla.org/en/About_omni.jar omni.jar] -- unzip it to edit (it's a zip file, unzip to its own folder, don't just do it inside of the firefox folder). It's located different places depending on your OS; in Ubuntu, it's usually in /usr/local/firefox/ or /usr/share/firefox.
    Depends on what you want to edit in the error page, but here are two possibilities inside omni.jar:
    * omni.jar-unzipped/chrome/en-US/locale/en-US/global/netError.dtd
    * omni.jar-unzipped/chrome/toolkit/global/netError.xhtml
    You'll need to redo any changes any time you upgrade Firefox. Back everything up too, just in case!

  • How do I customize the Push Notification sound?

    How do I customize the Push Notification sound?

    Searching the Internet, I found a solution that involves installing special software that I do not want to do.
    I also found a procedure shown below. The problem is, that switch and selection ( Notification Sound) does not exist on my iPhone.
    The current sound I appear to be getting is the Tri-Tone.  I find this hard to hear and I usually miss it, I was looking for something louder.   Sadly, the Android version of this app has the notification sounds changeable.
