Command line

Description

This attribute defines the webtop theme for an object. A webtop theme defines everything about the appearance and behavior of a webtop for web browser users.

Note This attribute is only used with the classic webtop. The browser-based webtop does not use themes.

For a person object or organizational unit object (but not for an organization object), choose Use Parent's Theme (on the command line, --webtop ..) to "inherit" the webtop theme of the parent object in the organizational hierarchy. This lets you change the webtop theme of many objects at once without editing each object. This is the default value for new person objects and new organizational unit objects.

Webtop themes are defined in the /opt/tarantella/var/docroot/resources/webtops directory. Theme names have three levels, for example sco/tta/standard. Each theme directory contains a file theme.properties, describing the theme.

• On the command line, replace theme_name with the value of the name property found in the theme.properties file. For example, sco/tta/standard.
• In Object Manager, the webtop theme names displayed in the list are obtained from the name-ll-tt properties in each theme.properties file, where ll-tt defines a locale. For instance, if you're using the US English version of Object Manager, it will display the values of the name-en-us properties in the list of webtop themes.

The attribute is ignored for users of the Native Client.

When listing object attributes on the command line, an attribute value of .. means use parent's theme.

Examples

--webtop sco/tta/standard

Uses the sco/tta/standard webtop theme, which all users see by default.

--webtop ..

Uses the webtop theme of the parent in the organizational hierarchy.
