Do one of the following: • Modify the script /etc/bginfo/bginfo.aux.sh. • Add a new executable script or program to the directory /etc/bginfo/commands, with the name matching the string inside the percentage signs. For instance, you create a new script named /etc/bginfo/commands/timezone. Whenever %%timezone%% is added to the text elements, the system's time zone abbreviation ("date+%Z") is displayed. Verify that the file is marked executable. If not, it is ignored. Login dialog box customization For the Smart Zero configuration, the login dialog box is central to user interaction. For the ThinPro configuration, it is launched only when a connection is launched and the authentication parameters are not already supplied for the connection. In both the ThinPro and Smart Zero configurations, it is possible to customize the login dialog box. Appearance customization The file desktop.qss in the theme directory contains the customization details about the graphics of the login dialog box. The format of the file is a Qt stylesheet. This document does not try to enumerate all the Qt stylesheet options and possibilities. For more information on the Qt stylesheet customization options, see the Qt documentation. The QDialog and individual items within it can be customized. Some of the more useful or interesting options are as follows: • background-color: rgb(255,0,0);-Specifies that the dialog box background is bright red • min-width: 450px;-Secifies the minimum width of the dialog box • border-color: black;-Specifies that the dialog box has a black border • border-width: 3px;-Specifies that the dialog box border is three pixels wide • font-size: 12pt;-Specifies that the font size is 12 point • font-color: blue;-Specifies that the font color is blue • qproperty-text: "Login Here";-Specifies that Login Here is displayed as the dialog box header Individual items within the dialog can be customized. For example, the following element adds width to the Log In button and specifies that it has a bright blue background with black text: QPushButton#connectButton { background-color: rgb(102, 147, 190); color: black; padding-left: 160px; padding-right: 160px; } Other individual customizable items that might be of interest are listed as follows.
