Hi,I´m doing some minor changes in iNotes, one of the things I would like to do is change the loggo. According to the Admin help file this is posible by editing the subform Custom_Banner in the Forms6 database.
Any clues how? The subform content is:
What should I do to change it and where is the default loggo if I just want to replace the file? I still want to keep the the functionality that shows the mail file informat./Magdalena

yuor absolute best bet is to create your logo the same size as that image and save it with the exact same name/file type. Then replace the image in the database. You can find the name of the image in the StyleSheet if the name is not explicitly called in the form.

Well, there is my problem. I can´t find the image… Is it in the Forms6? There are none images as I can see from the designer.There are several files/images attached in the database documents but I cannot edit them.
I could of course “hack” my self, but if there is a “right” way I would like to know wich is it!
Do you know which document is the one that contains the file?
Thanks for your quick answer!

What do you mean you cannot edit the images?
Subject: You have to create a mask to edit Images
Hello,
i did many changes to the look and feel of Domino Web Access. To replace images all you have to do is create a new mask in Forms6.nsf with your Deisgner called “Images”. Within this Mask place a Rich Text Field and give it a name you want, the name of the RTF doesn’t really matter.
Save the Mask and maby close the DB.
Then open the DB with your Notes Client and open the View “ResourcesByName”. There you will see a lot of images (The Names all end up with “.gif”). Double Click on the image you want to edit.
The new mask opens up and you can see the image as an attachment. Double Click the mask to get into “Edit-Mode”. mark the attached image, hit delete and say “Yes”. The you can attach your new Image into the Rich Text Field. Save your work and do a Refresh at the Browser. Now you should see the new Image at Domin Web Access (iNotes)

Hi Maria,
You can find this information in the IBM Redbook “Domino Web Acces 6.5 on Linux”. Take a look at chapter 11. Follow this link http://publib-b.boulder.ibm.com/Redbooks.nsf/RedbookAbstracts/sg247060.html?Open .
I have done it and it’s easy if you know where to find the information.

Hi Joakim, thanks for the tip, that Red Book was what I needed.One question only, since you have succeded…
The instruction says to write: “…/…/…/…/inotes/forms6.nsf/ebf.gif?OpenImageResource”
What I did was:
Created an Image reource i the Forms6 db (fr. Designer)
Changed the line in the Custom Banner sub
Nothing shows…No error either…
I have even tryed puting the server name in the line as well without result.
Just for the fun of it I even tryed “customizing styles” but the attachment doensn´t end in the body field as written, so I cannot erase it and replace the iNotes gif with my own…
Thankful for any clues!

Hello Magdalena,
First of all, give the image resource a different name then ebf.gif. Ebf.gif is just the name of the example image. In the line “…/…/…/…/inotes/forms6.nsf/ebf.gif?OpenImageResource”, replace ebf.gif with the name of you customized imageresource (CocaCola.gif etc). Save your work and remember to restart the HTTP-server (tell http restart).
That’s it!
