You can customize the appearance of the Application Window and Application Explorer views by replacing the following graphics elements:
The startup screen (Application Window and Application Explorer)
The Application Explorer desktop icons used to represent connected mode and disconnected mode
The Application Explorer system tray icons used to represent idle, offline, and refreshing
The AVI file used during the distribution and caching processes (Application Window and Application Explorer)
The AVI file used during the uninstall process (Application Window and Application Explorer)
The NovellĀ® banner in the lower-right corner of the Application Window and Application Explorer window
The 12 system tray icons used to animate a refresh (Application Window and Application Explorer)
Each graphics file must have a specific name and must be placed in the c:\program files\novell\zenworks\graphics directory.
Create the new graphics elements you want, using the information in the following table.

Create a \graphics directory under the c:\program files\novell\zenworks directory on each user's workstation (for example, c:\program files\novell\zenworks\graphics).
Copy the new graphics files to the \graphics directory.
HINT:To avoid manually creating the directory and copying the files to each user's workstation, create a simple Application object that creates the \graphics directory and copies the files to it. Then associate the Application object with each user (or workstation) and mark it as .
