Atlas — Standard Skin rules

Your system contains several standard skin rules, most with availability set to final (). You can copy them (using a new name) and alter the copy. These skins differ primarily in appearance, not behavior; your choice of which to use, or which to copy and adapt as a starting point for your application's skin, is mostly a matter of taste. ( Some older standard skins may be less complete than skins designated for use with V6.X composite portals.)

To review the appearance styles defined in a skin, use any of these approaches. The first approach is the most thorough.

• Update the Portal field on the Skins tab of a portal rule in your application that defines a traditional or composite portal. Log in to the application using an Operator ID that is, through the access group, associated with that portal rule.
• Select Preferences from the Designer Studio profile menu. In the General group, select the skin for the Run Process In: Skin field. Use the Run menu or access your worklist to create or process work, while still in the Designer Studio.
• Select > User Interface > Tools > Style Viewer. Select User for the Baseline Style field, Work for the Style Type, and the CSS skin you want to review
