Theme Construction Dialog Box (Children’s PAC)

To open this dialog box:
In Polaris Administration, select Profiles, Children’s PAC, Theme construction.

Themes determine the page appearance (background, icons, and other page elements) of Polaris PowerPAC Children’s Edition. Children can choose a theme from the options you specify. You can offer some or all the themes that are shipped with Polaris PowerPAC Children’s Edition, and you can develop your own themes. Use this dialog box to set up custom themes. For details, see Managing Themes. After the themes are defined, you make them available for use. See Assign themes.

Note:
Themes are stored in folders that contain sets of image files and a style sheet (CSS) file. Each theme has a unique folder on the Web server (Polaris/PowerPAC/children/themes/language folder). If you are constructing your own theme, set up a unique folder for your files on the Web server, in Polaris/PowerPAC/children/themes/language folder.

Create a new theme - Click Add. The Add/Edit Theme dialog box appears.
Display Name - Identifies the theme in Polaris Administration profiles and on the Polaris PowerPAC Children’s Edition interface.
File Name boxes - For each page listed in the Description column, type the filenames for the page graphic elements and for the style sheet (also listed in the Description column). Type only the filenames. The system constructs the appropriate URL.
Default Image Path - Type the name of your custom theme folder. Type only the folder name. The system constructs the appropriate URL for the theme files to Polaris/PowerPAC/children/themes/language folder/your folder on the server, based on the theme folder you specify. All the files for the theme must be located in the same folder.
Edit a theme - Select the theme from the list in the Theme Construction dialog box, and click Edit. The Add/Edit Theme dialog box appears. You cannot edit the Polaris default themes. However, you can select a default theme (or any other theme), click Copy, and edit the copy.
