Setting the Icon Size
The OEM Server's Alerts, Max Alerts, and Custom View windows contain an icon for
each object, each icon depicting an object's state. By default, these icons measure 16 by
16 pixels. If you want, you can set the default icon size to 32 by 32.
To set the icon size:
1. Open the OEM Options dialog box and click the General tab. (See Opening the
OEM General Options Dialog Box on page 3-2.)
2. Set the Use Large Icons option:
To use the larger 32 by 32 icons, in the Display panel, check the Use Large
Icons check box. All Alerts, Max Alerts, and Custom View windows display the
large icons. The Custom View window’s Small Icon view still uses small icons,
but the Large Icon, List, and Details views use large icons.
To use the smaller 16 by 16 icons, in the Display panel, clear the Use Large
Icons check box. All Alerts, Max Alerts, and Custom View windows display the
small icons. The Custom View windows Large Icon view still uses large icons,
but the Small Icon, List, and Details views use small icons.
3. Click OK or Apply to save the change, or click Cancel to discard it.
Choosing a New Icon Set
The OEM utilizes entity and state icons to depict information about a given object.
Instead of using the OEM’s default set, you can supply your own set of icons.
To select a new icon set:
1. Open the OEM Options dialog box and click the General tab. (See Opening the
OEM General Options Dialog Box on page 3-2.)
2. Click Choose Icons to display the Icon Server dialog box.
3. In the Icon Server dialog box, select the new icon set.
4. Click OK or Apply in the Icon Server dialog to use the new icon set, or click
Cancel to discard the change.
Note. Only Alerts, Max Alerts, and Custom View windows support the 32 by 32 icon size; all
other display windows always use 16 by 16 icons.
