Configuring the Styles for a Role

The interface for a specific user role can be configured. Changes made to the default role affect all roles, except for any roles that were configured individually. For more information on roles, see Working with Roles.

To configure the style for a role:

1. In the Configuration, click Build > User Interface Styles > Style Editor. The application displays the Style Editor.
2. From the Role drop-down menu, choose a role.

The Remove Customization icon disappears from the page on selecting a role. However, after saving the customizations, the icon reappears.

3. Configure the color specifications for the selected role. See also Working with Roles.
4. Click Save. The drop-down menu lists this role as customized.

The Save button is only enabled when a value is entered for any of the parameters.

To restore a role to its default style, do the following:

1. In the Configuration, click Build > User Interface Styles > Style Editor. The application displays the Style Editor.

The Application tab is selected by default.

2. From the Role drop-down menu, select a customized role.

A customized role is identifiable from the rest of the roles in the list. For example, Administrator (customized).

3. Click the Remove Customization icon next to the Role drop-down list. The colors for this role are restored back to its default settings. So in our example, the role is now listed as Administrator. See also Working with Roles.

Configuring the Theme

1. In the Configuration, click Build > User Interface Styles > Style Editor. The application displays the Style Editor.

The application does not support backward compatibility with Themes. For example, if a theme is changed from CDL2 to Light, all parameters need to be entered manually according to their respective color specifications mentioned in the above table.

1. Whenever a theme is selected from the Select Theme drop-down list, the following message is displayed.

2. Click OK.

3. Click Save to save the configuration changes.

Adding a New Logo to the Header or Footer

In Service Manager, logos are scaled to fit a 50-pixel vertical space in the header. Because scaling reduces image quality, the preferred logo dimensions are 50 pixels high and up to 200 pixels wide. The maximum logo dimensions are 650 pixels high by 650 pixels wide.

You cannot upload a new logo if you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer Release 9 or earlier.

To add a new logo to the header or footer in Service Manager, do the following:

1. In the Configuration, click Build > User Interface Styles > Style Editor. The application displays the Style Editor.

The Application tab is selected by default.

2. Under Header & Footer > Logo, click the image.

The image is enlarged.

Users can upload only JPEG or PNG image formats. No other formats are accepted by the application.

3. Click the select file icon to upload the image.

The image size must be less than or equal to 256 KB.

4. Navigate to the file and double-click the file name. In the right pane, the new logo replaces the existing logo on the top-left side of the header.

5. In the Select Theme field, the application marks the unsaved value with a red triangle at the left and the revert icon at the right.
6. Click Save.

Restoring the Default Logo

To restore the default logo in the header or footer in Service Manager:

1. In the Configuration, click Build > User Interface Styles > Style Editor. The application displays the Style Editor.

The Application tab is selected by default.

2. Under Header & Footer, click the current logo.
3. Click the delete uploaded file icon . The application deletes the current logo and displays the default Service Manager logo in its place.
4. In the Logo field, the application marks the unsaved value with a red triangle at the left and the revert icon at the right.
5. Click Save.

Working with Vanity URLs

Managed Service Providers (MSPs) can create vanity URLs to make it easier to configure the user interface for a specific tenant. They can then select and configure the user interface for a specific tenant, instead of having all tenants look the same. After creating the vanity URL, the application displays both a Tenant field and a Role field in the Style Editor. This means that you can configure both styles for a tenant and styles for different roles for the selected tenant.

To begin, the alternate login URL must be set for the MSP tenant to configure, in the Service Manager Configuration Database. See the Configuration Database Guide for Ivanti Service Manager for information about using the ConfigDB, including information about setting the alternate login URL.
