Kiran Kethineni Posted September 12, 2023 Posted September 12, 2023 Is there a way to customize the default images that display when we add resource tree to BIP. For example we want to change the 'star' icon that show up before favorites title with our custom image. I tried updating the 'favorites_16.png' file in /ibi/WebFOCUS82/backup_files/webapps/webfocus/resource/image/bid folder and restarted tomcat but it did not refresh.
David Beagan Posted September 12, 2023 Posted September 12, 2023 Your installation of WebFOCUS is using files under /backup_files is that correct?
Patrick Huebgen Posted September 13, 2023 Posted September 13, 2023 The backup folder is usually the backup done by WebFOCUS during the product update. Those files will not be used by WebFOCUS.The location of the file depends on how you deployed WebFOCUS - please take a look at your tomcat config:ibitomcatconfCatalinalocalhostibi_apps.xml This will look like this - and show you where to find the files - please let me know what you see here<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <Context docBase="E:ibiWebFOCUS82webappswebfocus" path="/ibi_apps" useHttpOnly="true"> </Context>
Kiran Kethineni Posted September 13, 2023 Author Posted September 13, 2023 Hi Patrick, i have checked ibi_apps.xml file and see '/ibi/WebFOCUS82/webapps/webfocus' as the path and when i searched in that path for 'favorites_16.png' it did not give me any results. I see 'META-INF' and 'Web-INF' folders only.
Patrick Huebgen Posted September 14, 2023 Posted September 14, 2023 In general this is not a recommended / official technique but all those files are stored in one of the .jar files - please make sure to have backups before making any changesI only have 9.21 available right now - in this version the star-icona are stored in those files - they are archives but you could change them - 8.2 will have similar nameswebfocus-webjars-tools-9.2.1.jar - folder META-INFresourcestoolswf_exploreresourcesimageswebfocus-webjars-tools-9.2.1.jar - folder META-INFresourcestoolsportalcanvasresourcesimageswebfocus-webjars-tools-9.2.1.jar - folder META-INFresourcestoolsportalresourcesimageswebfocus-webjars-misc-9.2.1.jar - folder META-INFresourcesresourceimagebid
Kiran Kethineni Posted September 14, 2023 Author Posted September 14, 2023 Thanks Patrick for your help. I was able to locate the files you mentioned. Kiran
