Look & Feel Settings

This part of settings allows us to adjust how the DSW instance looks like.

Application Titles

There are two titles that we can set. First, Application Title is the full title that should identify the DSW instance, for example, in browser’s tab. Second is Short Application Title which is visibile, for example, at the top of the main (left) menu next to the icon. We should keep Short Application Title really short (about 10 characters at maximum) so it fits well.

Logo and Colors

If enabled by deployment, we may also change the Logo and set Primary Color and Illustrations Color to adjust the visual style to branding of our organisation or basically to our taste.

Note

As this requires re-compilation of stylesheets, the deployment must be adjusted to enable this options.

Custom Menu Links

We can easily add custom links to the main (left) menu by clicking Add under Custom Menu Links. For each link, we can set Icon (from Font Awesome), Title and the target URL. We can also set whether the link should open in New Window (if not, it will nagivate user directly in the same window/tab from DSW instance). Once the links are there, we can manage them or delete them at this place.
