Banner width

[CindyKamigaki]

I'd like to widen the banner in Flex Viewer and cannot find reference to banners in the codes provided in the flexviewer folder. I've found reference to banner.mxml within the ArcGIS forums, but that seems to apply to API for Flex.  Any clarity would be greatly appreciated.

Cindy,

    I am a little confused... If you are talking about the header/banner in the Flex Viewer than it automatically covers 100% of the web browsers window width. Are you talking about height or the old SFV...?

Sorry, Let me clarify.  I'm inquirying about the color band where the title, subtitle, logo and widget tray are located.

You'll want to take a look at the HeaderControllerWidget.mxml file in the /src/widgets/HeaderController/ directory. Specifically, the contents of "headerGroup"

<s:Group id="headerGroup"
        width="100%" height="85">
   <!-- basic structure is an hbox with
        logoIcon: a logo (if specified)
        titleGroup: the title on top of the subtitle
        widgetBox: icons for all widgets specified in main configuration file
        linkBox: "link buttons" for all links specified in main configuration file
    -->
<mx:HBox id="headerContent"
...

That should get you started.

Cheers,
K

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Cindy,

   So as I mentioned earlier it is set to 100% in the Flex Viewer 2.2, so what are you after.

[CindyKamigaki]

Robert,

I mistyped and should have stated height.  Our logo is very detailed and I thought I could make the title banner height longer and enlarge our logo.  Currently, it just looks like a blob.  I'm new to code writing and should  probably invest in a book.  Can you suggest one?

Hi,
is there any way to edit this just through the HeaderControl.xml? I want to replace the default banner with one of our own....however, i'm only working with the compiled flexviewer and can't edit the mxml....

thanks

Andrew,

   No the height is hard coded and not configurable.

So you're saying that you can't edit the default banner like you were able to in ArcGIS Server Manager? If that's so that is such a bummer, so we would have to just stick with editing the style of the application?
