Custom icons

You can use your own images to supplement the icons that are provided with Analyst's Notebook. You can assign custom icons to entity types and attribute classes.

Images must meet the following specification:

Bitmap (.bmp) format
8-bit color depth
Size as specified in Table 1

Pixels that are colored magenta (RGB 255,0,255) are rendered transparent.

To make your custom icons available for use, copy the images to the appropriate folders specified in Table 1, then restart Analyst's Notebook.

Screen and print icons

Screen icons are displayed in the Analyst's Notebook window. Print icons are higher  definition versions of screen icons and are used in printouts. Creating custom print  icons is optional; if a screen icon does not have a corresponding print icon, the  screen icon is used in printouts. A print icon must have the same file name as the  corresponding screen icon.

Custom types

When you are using Analyst's Notebook connected to an i2 Analyze deployment, you can  create, import and manage custom entity and link types. For more information, see  Custom types.
