Logonstudio and the shutdown button

Wednesday, June 7, 2006 by vikram sheorey | Discussion: Community

Hi there, is it possible to change the position of this button?

Also (since I'm here) is it possble to change the length and breadth of the user account frame? No matter what dimensions I make the frame it always comes out the same size.

Any help would be gratefully received.

The shutdown button can only be moved by changing settings in the uifile. The user acct frame can be changed lengthwise somewhat in the Logon Studio editor by clicking on it and changing the "Panel Width".

Thanks but i have tried the 'panel width' already taking it upto 70% and down to 25%. I shall have another go though since The changes I made did not result in any discernible effect.

I will also have a look at the uifile and see if I can figure it out.

While you're there a question about your logons if I may. How the hell do you get the transparent box surrounding the user account frame first of all and then to centre it?

Is this the result of some fancy software, good scripting or both?

I use a totally different type of uifile and theme ini and nothing is done in Logon Studio.

I use a totally different type of uifile and theme ini and nothing is done in Logon Studio. The graphics as far as the buttons and center panel are done in Photoshop and all of the placements, sizing and colors are done in the coding of the files themselves. Logon Studio is only used to apply them. There isn't really much you can do other than the normal style logons with the Logon Studio editor, but it's still not easy to do a really good logon with LS either. You need to learn it's little tricks and have decent graphics.

Work with it a while, learn how to do some good basic Logon Studio logons and if you have any questions, email me Email

I'm starting to figure that out. I've done a few - you can have a look if you like.

These were done using Photoplus 6 ( buttons, shading etc ) and that's good enough for me right now since I've only been doing this kinda stuff for a month.

I was just interested in how that kinda stuff was done.

Thanks
