Colors/Background Settings

The WebAdmin Utility lets you customize and configure the Web Publisher. The  Colors/Background setting lets you set a default foreground color, background color, and background image for your askSam databases.

NOTE: You can globally define this setting by choosing Default Setting. If you wish to modify this settings for a specific file, set an Alias to the file.

• Foreground Color

Defines the foreground color for the text on your pages. By default, the Web Publisher will use the foreground color set in the askSam file. You can enter the name of a color, or you can enter an HTML hex color value.

• Background Color

Defines the background color for the text on your pages. By default, the Web Publisher will use the background color set in the askSam file. You can enter the name of a color, or you can enter an HTML hex color value.

• Background Image

Defines a default image as a background for all pages displayed in the Web Publisher. If you wish to display a background image, enter the URL for the graphic in this field. If you leave this field blank, no background image is displayed.

1. Start the WebAdmin utility.

2. Choose Default Settings (to define this setting globally), or create or edit an Alias (to define this setting for a specific database).
