You can modify or replace the l_ptc_splash.gif file located here: codebase/wtcore/images/bblks/l_ptc_splash.gif

(For Windchill 10.1, I am not sure for other versions of the software.)

Make sure you save your work in a safe folder that will not be overwritten during an upgrade.

Hi Marc,

Thanks for your reply. Actually am asking about the Home page " Welcome to Windchill".

But whatever you mentioned that is a background image when loading the home page.

Thanks in advance...

Hi Binesh,

You are correct. Actually i found that file from that i found welcomeRB.java file. In java file only i have to change.

I installed eclipse juno for customization. I changed in java file and complied it and replace WelcomeRB.class file in \Windchill_10.2\Windchill\codebase\com\ptc\core\ui\.

But its not changing.. Whatever i did that is correct or????.. Am new to customization...

Thanks in advance....

Hi Krishnamoorthy,

I did following and it worked

1. Changed following in WelcomeRB.java

     @RBEntry("Welcome to Windchill (Changed)")

    @RBComment("A title in welcome page")

    public static final String WELCOME_GUIDE_TITLE = "WELCOME_GUIDE_TITLE";

2. Executed following command from windchill shell to get the java file compiled

     tools class -Dclass.includes=com\ptc\core\ui\**

Regards,

Bhushan
