D Customizing the Smart Zero login screen
Customizing the screen background
This section describes the common attributes and elements used in customizing the Smart Zero login screen.
There is one directory per connection type—plus a default style—that species the style elements of the
connection’s background image and login window style.
In a style directory, the le bgCong.rtf species the elements in the desktop's background window. The
syntax of the bgCong.rtf le is in a stylesheet-like format with some or all of the elements described below.
Each element begins with an element type and then a set of attributes surrounded by braces, such as in the
following example:
global {
color: 666666; # Dark gray
padding: 20; # 20 pixels }
Any number of image or text elements can be specied. If any gradients are specied, only the last of them is
used to color the desktop's background; otherwise, the color specied in the global section is used. Any line
that begins with a number sign “#” is considered a comment and is ignored, as are blank lines. Text following
a semicolon that begins with a “#” is also treated as a comment, such as the previous example.
Each element is assigned a set of attributes such as size, color, and position. Each attribute is specied by the
attribute name, followed by a colon, followed by its values, followed by a semicolon, all on a single line. Some
of these attributes are common to many element types.
The elements include:
●
