Chapter 12: Defining the End-User Interface
Working with Dialogs
Important: You can also configure the banner bitmap for all end-user dialogs by configuring the Global Dialog Banner
setting, which is displayed when you click the Dialogs explorer in the Dialogs view. If you change the value of the Banner
Bitmap setting for a particular dialog and then you change the value of the Global Dialog Banner setting, the value in the
Banner Bitmap setting is overwritten with the value in the Global Dialog Banner setting.
Changing the Global Dialog Image for End-User Dialogs
Task To change the bitmap image for all end-user dialogs that contain it:
1. In the View List under Customize the Setup Appearance, click Dialogs.
2. Click the Dialogs explorer.
3. In the Global Dialog Image setting, type the path to the .bmp or .jpg file that you want to use as
the bitmap image in all dialogs that contain it. Alternately, click the ellipsis button (...) to browse to
the file. The image must be 499 pixels wide by 312 pixels high.
Tip: You can also set the bitmap image for individual dialogs.
Caution: If you change the value of the Bitmap Image setting for a particular dialog and then you change the value of the
Global Dialog Image setting, the value in the Bitmap Image setting is overwritten with the value in the Global Dialog Image
setting.
