SAP GUI Settings?

Former Member — Wed, 10 Oct 2007 14:30:09 GMT

I must have a different SAP GUI than some of my colleagues beacause I can only seem to dis[play in gray and white. I tried everything and cannot change my colors to the standard SAP sky blue. Do I have a different GUI? Or does someone know a way to accomplish this....Thank-You.

Hi,

Have you tried to change your customized local layout?

Path: Customize Local layout (ALT+F12) -> New Visual Design -> Color Settings -> ...

If this does not work then perhaps you need to go Tweak SAP GUI to change your theme from clasic to enjoy.

Path: Start (your PC) -> All Progams -> SAP Front End -> Tweak SAP GUI -> in here change your theme.

Hi Tom,

Its not that u have a different GUI. There is settings done.

In the last button of the Application toolbar whose description is customizing of Local layouts, there is a option for <b>NEW VISUAL DESIGN</b>. Choose it and a pop up will appear. In the Color settings tab of the pop up choose the appropriate Theme and color settings.

Log off and log in again.

Please check.

Thank you.

Hi Tom,

You must have GUI setting default to clasic theme.

I am not sure what is your SAP GUI version now.

I have SAP GUI 7.10 where you can go to tweak SAP GUI to change your theme.

But please try go to your SAP Front End folder and see whether you have GUI Setting exe.file. I remember in the old version SAP GUI logon, there is an option (button) to switch from classic to enjoy theme.

Path: Start (your PC) -> All Progams -> SAP Front End -> ... -> in here change your theme.

Hi Larry,

I went into Program Files=>SAP=>FrontEnd=>SAPgui=>themes=>enjoy.

In there is theme.xml where the first line of xml says Default Theme ID="Root"?

Not sure what to do after this...thanks for the input.

Hi Tom,

Please don't go to area of Program Files -> SAP -> FrontEnd -> SAPgui -> Themes -> Enjoy.

Go to your SAP GUI logon pad and click on icon on the left top corner.

There are menu options ... try to select options and about SAP logon and see whether any option to switch from classic GUI.

If this doesn't work please ask your BASIS folk for help.

Just thought I'd pass along. I needed to check at New Visual Design in the Control Panel for SAP Configuration. I never thought to look there, I finally can change the color scheme!

I found that I needed to have the Active Theme Setting (e.g. Enjoy) on the General Tab and the Theme Setting on the Colour Settings Tab, set to the same thing, otherwise the colour would change Only for the SAP Logon Pad and not for any screens that I signed on to.
