Customizing icons or images

All icons or images that are used in the Identity Manager Service Center are customizable. The icon customization task involves providing replacements for one or more of the customizable files that are provided by IBM Verify Identity Governance.

Before you begin

  • Create the backup copy of original files before you customize the images.
  • For the customized image, use the same resolution and format as the original graphic image.

About this task

This procedure describes how to replace the customizable icon file and where to place the customized icon file so that it can be used by the Identity Manager server.

Procedure

  1. In the .../itim/custom/ui/original/images folder, locate the image that you want to customize.
    For example, .../itim/custom/ui/original/images/identity.png.
  2. Copy the image that you want to customize to the .../itim/custom/ui/images folder. Use the same relative path as the file that Identity Manager provides in the .../itim/custom/ui/original/ folder.
    For example, .../itim/custom/ui/images/identity.png
  3. Modify the copied image or create your custom image. You have two options:
    • You can use the same file name and type as the file that Identity Manager provides. For example, identity.png.
    • You can use a different name for the image file. If you use a different file name, then you must also modify the custom cascading stylesheet (CSS) to point to the image file. For more information, see Customizing cascading styles.

What to do next

Start the Identity Manager Service Center in a browser to verify that the customized file is being used.
