Title: Different look for different company in EVO
Post by deburr on 02/03/07 at 05:41:45

Does anyone know if the screen background color can be changed for different companies to make it obvious that you may be a the wrong company?

I know you can look at the fine print at the bottom of the screen to read the company name, but I am looking for something more idiot proof. DBA used to have a different screen color for the secondary companies years ago.

DBA has never had that capability (even the DOS version) that I recall, but Evo will have a different menu screen logo per company with the next release.

Thanks,

And it is now available in the 2/14/07 update. Anybody interested, I have a nice Red Wagon image for the Manufacturing Answer (99) company.

How do I change the "look" for different companies?

TAS-Q Logo Image. Be careful, if your file type is not a supported type it will not load right. When you restart EVO, it will say invalid image type and you will not be able to get back to the TAS-Q program.

Save a copy of your EVOERP.GIF file before you change anything. If you have an issue, just copy your EVOERP.GIF back to your directory.

I love the change. I can't say how many times a few people have entered things into the wrong Co........

In theorie yes, but not all graphic files with those .ext work. I had many different .JPG and .BMP files that would not work.

Maybe Corel Photo Paint did a poor job of converting them? Is their a size limit?

I stuck with a .GIF and all is well.

I understand how to change the logo on the page. But, what about the original question:

It would really be nice if you could color code the background screen color for different companies. Can this be done?

DITTO original question! At month end I juggle between two companies. Logos are not the issue with me, the bookkeeper, but having a different background color would assist me in remembering what set of books I am currently managing.
