SAPGUI - is it possible to change the default Theme?

Hello,
Currently, the default is the "Enjoy" theme with the "Complementary" colour setting.
Is it possible to change either of these defaults? We have to change the default theme for all users without them having to change it themselves.
We are using SAPGUI 640 patch 13.
Many thanks

Assuming we are talking about Windows, the color settings are maintained in the registry.  The defaults are listed under:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SAP\General\Appearance]
"SapCreateKey"=dword:00000000
"HuePaletteBuffer"="9b9a8ffcfcedf4f3e3eae9d7e0dfd0d8d6c7cecdc0cbcbbdc1c0b2b7b6a8adac9fa09f958e8e847f7e7572726a6867605b5a544f4f493f3f3b65808e839daa8da8b795b1c1"
<b>"Theme"="Enjoy"</b>
"OldName"="Default"
"NewName"="Enjoy"
"SplashOff"=dword:00000001
"Animation"="Off"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SAP\General\Appearance\Themes]
"SapCreateKey"=dword:00000000
<b>"SystemDefault"="Enjoy"</b>
If you wanted to change the color settings that the user is actually seeing, you would need to edit the Current User:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAP\General\Appearance]
"SapCreateKey"=dword:00000000
"HuePaletteBuffer"="9b9a8ffcfcedf4f3e3eae9d7e0dfd0d8d6c7cecdc0cbcbbdc1c0b2b7b6a8adac9fa09f958e8e847f7e7572726a6867605b5a544f4f493f3f3b65808e839daa8da8b795b1c1"
<b>"Theme"="Tradeshow"</b>
"SplashOff"=dword:00000000
"OldName"="Default"
"NewName"="Enjoy"
"Animation"="On"
"Sound"="On"
"Scaling"="100"
These could be changed via logon script or other PC management tools like SMS.  The defaults can be changed in the SAP GUI install using scripting support so that you wouldn't have to continually change them.

John

  • Is it possible to change the default URL when creating new hyperlinks?

    I'm currently working to take a 128 page catalog that was created in InDesign for print and turn it into a interactive PDF to post on our companies website. The catalog contains thousands of part numbers and I'd like to link each one to its corresponding stock status page on our website that gives current availability and pricing for any particular customer.
    So say I'm dealing with part number "XXXX". When I go to add the hyperlink the default web address it spits out is " http://XXXX ". Instead of that, would it be possible to change the default to " http://forums.adobe.com/discussion/XXXX/1 ". Obviously I just used this website as an example, but it would save so much time if I could avoid having to type the exact same URL every time.
    Or maybe is there a quicker way to do this other than what I am currently trying?
    Thanks

    I've found some external software applications that will do it, so that leads me to believe its not possible within ID CC.

  • Is it possible to change the default language of a computer remotely?

    Hi
    Is it possible to change the default language of a computer remotely?
    We have Apple Remote desktop and network home folders with managed prefs but i don't seem to be able to use either of these to change the default language of all of our macs to "British English".
    is there a UNIX command that can do this?

    The simple way is via the Internationalization settings via ARD or RDP or Screen Sharing, either via System Preferences or (if enabled) via the menu bar. If you're looking for a lower-level approach, there's not AFAIK a direct command for this. As for one possible approach, might [threadID=2106201|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2106201] help?

  • Possible to change the default spool request title ?

    Hello,
    I'm SAP Basis guy, I've been asked by our functional team if it would be possible to change the default spool request title.
    Our endusers have access to transaction SP01, where every morning, they can see the spools request that have been generated during the execution of night batches.
    Currently, the default spool name is displayed :
    Title or name of spool request LIST1S LOCL ZREPORTSUFFIX (in transactions sm37 and sp01)
    Is it possible to change the default name of this spool request with some abap coding ?
    Thank you.

    hi,
    goto transaction SPAD and change the default values as you require but i doubt whether you would be able to change the spool title after the job has been triggered i think it is nt possible
    but for further requests you can change it from SPAD

  • I can't change the default theme.

    I installed Firefox 5 and some themes that I found on the Add-ons page, but once they are installed, I restart the program but there is not any change, the default theme remains. I tried to activate them manually in Add-ons section but it doesn't work. The theme appears as activated though. What can I do with this?
    Thank you.

  • IS IT POSSIBLE TO CHANGE THE DEFAULT WEB PRESENTATION OF IFS?

    We have a web application that has links to specific documents and directories stored in IFS. For example, there could be a link that resolves to this URL within IFS:
    http://oraifs-pd.nbme.org:8002/ifs/files/home/ads/systems/CLOP/Minutes/Inventory/
    What we see when the user follows this link is something like this:
    Index of /home/ads/systems/CLOP/Minutes/Inventory/
    CLOP_Shipping_Procedures.doc
    Meetings
    P&P0404.xls
    P&Pdoc.xls
    Samples
    Schedules
    Note that this is a very plain presentation, with just a heading telling you the directory you're in and a dumb list of the files and subdirectories you are looking at.
    The developers would like to change this default presentation, if possible, without having to go deep into the IFS API calls to build a custom application.
    Is there a template or default html file that we can edit to change this presentation? I opened a TAR on this, but was told to come to OTN since Oracle Support doesn't get into customization issues.
    Thanks,
    Joe

    no, you cannot change the built-in http file listing that iFS provides. you can, however, write your own servlet and display whatever HTML you would like. the iFS API calls to get file listings by path and attributes from objects are very easy -- most of the work would be in building the servlet.

  • Is it possible to change the default "oraesb" database schema ?

    Wondering if it is possible to configure ESB to use a database schema other than the default one (i.e oraesb). Motivation: I have one database that I'd like to leverage for multiple mid-tier installations.
    From the IRCA script, I get the impression that this should be possible. If so, are any of these steps documented anywhere. Thanks.

    In theory yes, although I have never tried, nor probably recommend.
    Thinking about it, what you would need to do is install the SOA suite as you would normally using the default schema. Once installed and working copy the ORAESB schema into another schema of your choice.
    In the enterprise manaher you would need to change all the connection details to pount to the new schema. In the jdbc resources. Make sure that the names in the datasorce remain the same.
    I think it would be too dificult to do at install time.
    cheers

  • Is it possible to change the default file encoding?

    I have just learned that the "file.encoding" system property should be treated as read-only.
    (http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4163515.html)
    I am using this property to tell javac that the command arguments file has some other encoding than the system deafult, like this:
    javac -J-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 @files-to-compile.lst
    On windows xp with us english locale it worked for all the SDK releases I checked, but for Windows 2000 Japanese Edition only one of the J2SDK 1.4.1 releases worked.
    My question is: is there an acceptable way to tell the JVM what the default encoding is? Or inform javac about the encoding of the argument file?
    The reason for having a UTF-8 encoded javac argument list file is that our application generates Java source files that can have unicode characters in their names. Seemingly Windows supports unicode file names so I did not want to restrict file names to those supported by the system encoding.

    Use javac's "-encoding" option.
    $ javac 
    Usage: javac <options> <source files>
    where possible options include:
      -g                        Generate all debugging info
      -g:none                   Generate no debugging info
      -g:{lines,vars,source}    Generate only some debugging info
      -nowarn                   Generate no warnings
      -verbose                  Output messages about what the compiler is doing
      -deprecation              Output source locations where deprecated APIs are used
      -classpath <path>         Specify where to find user class files
      -sourcepath <path>        Specify where to find input source files
      -bootclasspath <path>     Override location of bootstrap class files

  • Is it possible to change the default border on a JMenu?

    Hello,
    I'm working on an application that has a simple menu system. Clicking a button opens a JPopupMenu, which contains JMenu and JMenuItem objects. I want to change the border on the JPopupMenu and its JMenu submenus to a simple line border. Calling setBorder on the JPopupMenu works just fine, but calling it on JMenu doesn't change the border. The following code illustrates my point.
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    import javax.swing.event.*;
    public class MenuTest {
       JFrame f;
       JPanel p;
       JPopupMenu popup;
       JMenu mainMenu;
       JMenu subMenu;
       JButton showPopupButton;
       public MenuTest()
          f = new JFrame("Popup Menu Test");
          p = new JPanel();
          popup = new JPopupMenu();
          subMenu = new JMenu("Submenu");
          mainMenu = new JMenu("Main Menu");
          JMenuItem m;
          for (int i=0; i < 3; i++) {
             m = new JMenuItem("Submenu item " + i);
             subMenu.add(m);
          // This doesn't work.  The border remains set to the default Windows bevel.
          subMenu.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.BLACK));
          popup.add(subMenu);
          for (int i=0; i < 5; i++) {
             m = new JMenuItem("Main menu item " + i);
             popup.add(m);
          showPopupButton = new JButton("Show Popup");
          showPopupButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
             public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
                Component c = (Component) e.getSource();
                popup.show(c, 0, c.getHeight());
          p.add(showPopupButton);
          // This works.  It sets the border of the popup menu to a black line border.
          popup.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.BLACK));
          f.getContentPane().add(p);
          f.setSize(400, 300);
          f.setVisible(true);
       public static void main(String[] args)
          try {
             UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
          catch (Exception e) { }
          new MenuTest();
    }Any ideas? Do I have to extend JMenu and do some custom painting to accomplish this? I'd also like to change the roll-over color on the menu items, but neither JMenu nor JPopupMenu seem to support that. It looks like borders and rollover colors are L&F dependent.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • Is it possible to change the default PDF file name from 'LabVIEW Document.pdf'?

    My application uses the 'Automatically print front panel every time VI completes execution' functionality to print front panels.  When I have my printer set to 'Adobe PDF', a dialog pops up and the default file name is 'LabVIEW Document.pdf'.  Is there a way to programatically set the name to something other than 'LabVIEW Document.pdf'?
    I've already found a solution that manipulates the Windows registry, and I'm looking for another option.

    Do a search, as this question has come up before. The solution centered on not using the Adobe PDF printer driver but one that is intelligent.

  • Is it possible to change the default settings for the slideshow?

    The default settings for any new slideshow use the dreaded Ken Burns effect and some awful background music from a standard library. Having to turn these things off for every new slideshow I start is driving me nuts. Perhaps preferring no music accompaniment and a static photo on the screen is for some people rather boring - but I would prefer it, at least as a starting point. If anyone can help, I'd be very grateful. Thanks

    Choose "Export" and then the QuickTime option.
    It will make a 4 track video with a simple "fade" effect between photos. You can set the dimensions and the duration of your photos. You can also remove the music or add your own from your iTunes Library (no purchased music if you intend to share these movies).

  • Isit possible to change the default save as file type settings?

    Hi,
    I would like to set the default "save" and "save as" file type to "PDF /A" instead of the default "PDF" due to compatibility issue with some of our systems. Can this be done?
    So when a user click on the save button at the top it auto save as "PDF /A" and when the user select save as the default selection will be "PDF /A" ?

    Dave,
    Did you ever find an answer to this? We are having the same issue.

    Hi again
    Ouch! Not the network!
    One of the hard learned issues that folks are unaware of until they encounter problems is that Captivate does not do well when a project is stored on a network. It's fine to keep projects there in order to back them up or as a transfer pivot location to allow others to edit, but you never want to open Captivate, click File > Open and browse to a network location to open a project for editing.
    Best practice at this point is to keep projects on your local C drive when you make edits.
    Cheers... Rick
