Display Custom TitleBar: If enabled, any text that is placed in this editbox will be displayed on the TitleBar instead of the selected values above. This feature overrides any of the above items. Also, you can "build" a custom TitleBar in any order you wish by placing the desired variable values; %1, %2, %3, etc. in the editbox in the order in which you want them to appear on the TitleBar. You can also mix in your own text as well.
For example: If you want the Session Description followed by the Session Identifier followed by the words "Claims Application" to appear on the TitleBar, place the following in the editbox:
%4 - %1 - Claims Application
CAUTION!
If the
Display Custom TitleBar checkbox
is enabled and the editbox is left blank, the result will be a blank TitleBar.
Display Custom Icon: If you would like to change the icon that appears on the BlueZone TitleBar, enable this checkbox and browse to the location where the desired icon is located. We suggest keeping the icon in a "predicable" location like the BlueZone Installation Directory.
