Different Themes Production and Testservers

[hlinseisen]

Ther should be an easy way to apply different color schemes ( maybe at least changing the color of the header ) to Windchill,

so that one can easily see whether he's working on the production server or on the testserver.

This should be configurable in the wt.properties

in 9.1 we used simple a simple header image to diferentiate the systems, in 10.1 we have some customised style sheets. Both fairly straight forward.

Some of our folks figured out that you can just edit the color of this file directly - which is what we now do in each OTB ref install or rehost.  Results in a different color horizontal band that you instantly recognize as being, production, test, DR, etc.

The File can be found at

"C:\ptc\Windchill_10.1\Windchill\codebase\netmarkets\themes\windchill\Header\background_gradient.png"

The Windchill Logo can be changed at

"C:\ptc\Windchill_10.1\Windchill\codebase\netmarkets\images\logoWC.png"

It still would be an improvement if ptc could provide the nescessary files themselves and make it configurable

Thanks a lot
