Changing the logo on a Report form

You can change the graphics image used for the company logo on reports created as Report-type (template) forms.

Note: 
  • To be able to change the logo for all system users, you must have Site Developer editing permissions and be logged in with a Site Developer user login.
  • For images stored in the forms database, a site-specific override image can be provided by using naming convention when adding the override image in design mode. See Creating and using a site-specific logo image.
  1. Use Form Control to check out the company-logo.jpg image object:
    Note: This step is required only if you are using source control and have Enforce Strict Locking of Forms and Global Objects selected on the Design Time tab of the User Preferences dialog box. Otherwise, you can skip to Step 2.
    1. Open Form Control and select the Global Objects tab.
    2. Under Selection Criteria, select Image.
    3. From the Master object name drop-down list, select the object named company-logo.jpg.
    4. Verify that the Check out option is selected.
    5. Click Execute Action.
    6. When prompted to confirm check-out, click OK.
    7. Close Form Control.
  2. With no form open, go into Design Mode.
  3. When prompted, select Site Default as the Scope.
  4. From the Edit menu, select Image.
  5. In the Images dialog box, select the graphic named company-logo.jpg.
  6. Click Import.
  7. Use the Get image for company-logo.jpg dialog box to navigate to and select the graphics file to use for the company logo.
    Note: The graphics file you select need not be a JPG-formatted file. It can be any type of graphics image supported by Mongoose.
  8. In Form Control, check the company-logo.jpg image object back in:
    Note: This step is required only if you performed Step 1.
    1. Open Form Control and select the My Checked Out Objects tab.
    2. Click Display List.
    3. In the list of Checked Out Objects, locate and select the company-logo.jpg object.
    4. Verify that the Check in option is selected.
    5. Click Execute Action.
    6. When prompted, to confirm check-in, click OK.
A preview of the image should display in the Images dialog box, designated as "Site default version". If it does not, you can verify that the image has, in fact, been imported correctly by closing the Images dialog box, exiting Design Mode, and then opening a report form that you have created.
