Modify Icon Style

	WebCT Faculty Tip Sheets Modify Icon Style Use this feature to set the style for all icon images. Note: Making the following changes will alter all icons for your course except those icons that have been individually modified. If you wish to view a Flash demo of these steps, click here. If you do not have Flash on your computer, download it from Macromedia's download site. From the Control Panel, click Course Settings. The Course Settings screen appears. Under Customize Course Appearance, click Modify icon style. The Modify Icon Style screen appears. Select the desired icon style: The Photo icons are photographic images with no text. The Text icons include five choices of colored text with a swash underline. The Graphic icons include Formal, Formal (no text), Casual, Casual transparent, or Casual transparent (no text). Transparent indicates that the backdrop of the icon image is transparent, allowing the color of the screen background to be seen. No text indicates that the icon appears on screen without a label. To apply the selection, click Update. The Course Settings screen appears and the icon is updated. Tips: If you plan to use a background image or a background color in your course, select a transparent icon style. If you use text icons, avoid naming your icons, as the redundancy is often confusing for students.
