It is possible to customize logo and background images for UBIK® Android.

Server configuration

Background images and logo can be customized by server configuration and will be synchronized after the user has logged in.

IC Attention.pngIf configured, the customization of logo & background on a local device will be overruled by server customization (using the ACM Manager) associated with the current Application and Context once users login.

Local configuration: App specific

In order to configure app-specific images, place the required files under the directory SD_CARD/Android/data/APP_PACKAGE_NAME/files/UIConfigurations where

Parameter Purpose
SD_CARD represents the root of the external storage of a device
APP_PACKAGE_NAME is the concatenation of "com.augmensys.ubik." and the application name, e.g. demo, manualtest, companyname etc.

Local configuration: For all UBIK®Android apps

Alternatively, the images can also be placed under SD_CARD/UBIK/UIConfigurations. This way, every installed UBIK® Android app will use the specified images if there are no app specific images or images supplied by the server.

File requirements

The following files can be used:

Parameter Purpose Recommended Resolution (px)
bg_landscape.png background for landscape mode 1000x447
bg_portrait.png background for portrait mode 600x871
icon.png logo to display in the ActionBar 48x48
IC Hint square.pngThe resolution values are for a device with a 1000x600 pixels screen like the Getac Z710; the values may vary for other devices with different screen resolutions

The customization can be achieved through the following steps:

  1. Launch any file browser application;
  2. Choose image files to be used as logo and/or background, rename them according to the default naming;
  3. Navigate to the predefined directory, create it if not found;
  4. Place the renamed files under the selected directory, replace the old files with the same names if exist.
