Customization

Applications can be customized on the following levels:

  1. Customizing fonts and colors. See Styles for more information.

  2. Customizing the behavior of the application. See Behavior for more information.

  3. Customizing text of the user interface. See Text for more information.

  4. Defining structure. See Customizing XSLT for more information.

The easiest way to create a customized application is to:

  1. Create the application and its folder in the general configuration page.

  2. Copy the files of one of the sample applications that are shipped with the KCM ComposerUI installation to the folder of the newly created application. Refer to KCM Installation Guide for more information.

  3. Adapt the files of the newly created application as described in the following paragraphs.

In the J2EE implementation of KCM ComposerUI, customization in the application folder is applied immediately (or automatically). In the KCM ComposerUIASP.NET implementation, it is necessary to deploy the custom application. Application deployment is done through the main configuration page of KCM ComposerUI ASP.NET.
