[SOLVED] Setting Font For Entire Report At One Time in InfoAssist

Hi there - I cannot find this in the manual. Currently in InfoAssist, the font default is set to Arial. If I'd like to change it to our company standard of Calibri, I have to individually select each field, then select the Data + Title buttons. I found an article on how to change the font all at once using the WebFocus language, but my company hasn't provided training in this language and once you use the text editor you can't use the web editor on that report any longer. So I'm wondering, does anyone know how to set the entire font for a report in one go at the beginning of creating a report?

Hi Jprince

From the client administration console under the utilities menu there is an InfoAssist properties link. Under the Tool Options there is a setting for the InfoAssist Stylesheet. Reference a style sheet that has Calibri set as the font.


Thank you for using Focal Point!

How do I know if a stylesheet has a default of calibri, or how to I create a stylesheet with my desired format?

Hi Jprince

The default style sheet is located on the server where the WebFOCUS client is installed. It is under the \ibi\WebFOCUS81\ibi_html\javaassist\intl\EN\ENIADefault_combine.sty file. You can edit that file and on the first line change the font parameter

type=report,color=rgb(66 70 73),font='Trebuchet MS',size=9,grid=off,$

You could, also, edit the fex in the GUI, change the style as desired (add "type=report,color=rgb(66 70 73),font='Trebuchet MS',size=9,grid=off,$") then save it as something else. I'd use "something" as others in your organization may be using the source style sheet and you DON'T want to change their output format, do you?

We aren't live yet. So I would actually like to change the default to be Calibri, as our current custom reports go out in Calibri font and we would like a seamless transition for the users once they begin using webfocus.

Hi Jprince

Then use my suggestion as that will make Calibri the default for all users using the default style sheet.
