Changing the default graphics

When you drop a new graphic view onto the workspace, the background that displays is the default image, as are the icons overlaying the graphic. You can change the graphic and the styling through the Properties editor Style tab. If you prefer another background graphic or icons for the default images, you can use your own.

• To change the default background:
  1. Rename the original default.jpg to default_backup.jpg in the backgrounds directory:
     or Install_dir/cw/classes/candle/fw/resources/backgrounds
     Install_dir\cnb\classes\candle\fw\resources\backgrounds
  2. Copy the new default graphic to the same directory and name it default.jpg.
• To change the default icons and styles:
  1. Make a backup copy of $base.css, $baseIcon.css, $baseLargeIcon.css, and $baseNodeState.css in the styles directory:
     or Install_dir/cw/classes/candle/fw/resources/styles
     Install_dir\cnb\classes\candle\fw\resources\styles
  2. Edit the original style sheets to reference the images that you want as the defaults.
