As of December 1, 2020, Focal Point is retired and repurposed as a reference repository. We value the wealth of knowledge that's been shared here over the years. You'll continue to have access to this treasure trove of knowledge, for search purposes only.

New TIBCO Community Coming Soon
In early summer, TIBCO plans to launch a new community—with a new user experience, enhanced search, and expanded capabilities for member engagement with answers and discussions! In advance of that, the current myibi community will be retired on April 30. We will continue to provide updates here on both the retirement of myibi and the new community launch.

What You Need to Know about Our New Community
We value the wealth of knowledge and engagement shared by community members and hope the new community will continue cultivating networking, knowledge sharing, and discussion.

During the transition period, from April 20th until the new community is launched this summer, myibi users should access the TIBCO WebFOCUS page to engage.

in HTML the command PAGECOLOR= sets the background for the entire page.
doesn't work for PPTX. whats the syntax for coloring the whole page?

Then how do I place an image ON TOP of a bg-colored area? Is there a z-index kind of thing?

does anyone have an example of a 'template'? the manual hints at their existence but doesn't cough up any samples...

does anyone have an example of a compound PPTX creation that they would be willing to share?

Thanks in advance..

Looks like you will need to open a case on techsupport. I tried this and had the same issue as you. I have not been able to find any samples of templates other than a case that stated to use a .mht format


Thank you for using Focal Point!

Susannah, we use templates for a number of projects. I'll try to pull something together today if time permits.
