Lucidity Access: Configuration
Changes to End-Users
Changes to system settings will affect all end-users. Once set, the banner, login splash back, PDF banner and theme are rarely changed once set. For the changes to be viewed, end-users may need to log out and sign back in again.
For more instructions on types and settings for images to be uploaded, refer to Uploading/Managing Files guide.
From the Configuration tab, adjust the branding as required.
Banner (inc PDF Banner)
The banner is the image that sits at the top of every module and page within Lucidity Software, appears in the module switcher and will be seen by all end users. It is generally the organisation's logo and the same logo is used in all places.
Note that the text that accompanies the logo in each instance (ie - the module name) is generated by Lucidity, and is not part of the image. The font and size of the text is fixed.
The PDF banner sits at the top of printed PDFs from InForm, print receipts from Induction and various other locations.
Banner Requirements
The following describes the requirements for the system and PDF banner:
| Image format | .png with transparent background |
| Minimum image height (pixels) | 300 px (minimum) |
| Aspect ratio | Not to exceed 5:1 (1500 pixels max width for 300 pixel height) |
Transparent images will always look best. This is one of many free tools that can be used to make images transparent.
The login splash back is the background image displayed to end-users on the log in page, regardless of selected module. The image will scale to fit the current screen size. The Lucidity cloud splash is illustrated in the example below.
Splash Back Requirements
The following specification should be used as a minimum when selecting a background image to avoid excessive pixelation.
| Image format | .jpg or .png |
| Image height (pixels) | 1200 px (minimum) |
| Image width (pixels) | 1800 px (minimum) |
To change the system or PDF banner or the login splash back, from the Configuration page:
- Ensure the image to be uploaded is stored on a computer or network drive and is easily accessible
- Click 'Upload Image' under either the banner, PDF banner or login background
- Locate the image from the computer/ network drive and click 'Open'
- The image will be saved, and the new banner or login background displayed
Theme
The Theme tab allows system administrators to change the colour theme for the system.
Use the primary and secondary colour drop downs to select the colours to be used throughout the system and click 'Update Theme.'
