Modifying a Task List item

To modify a task list item in 15.0

For iMIS 15.0, you need to use Navigation Designer, which requires a beta license. The navigation isn't handled through separate .htm files.

To modify a task list item in 10.6

To modify the left task frame and change the description that displays at the top of the workspace for the tasklist item, you need to modify the Left-XXX-Main.htm file in the particular module's folder.

1. Back up your existing files before making any changes to iMIS Desktop.
2. Open the \framework\HiRes\feature folder, where feature refers to the area of iMIS that you want to modify.
3. Open the LeftXXX.htm file for the module in an HTML editor or Windows Notepad, where XXX refers to the area you want to modify. For example, the \framework\HiRes\Customers\LeftCust-Main.htm file contains information about the links that display for the Customers task frame.
4. Scroll down to the part of the file that resembles the following:

   	<table border="0" cellspacing="0" class="lefttable" align="center">

   	<tr>

   	<td class="leftheading" nowrap><img src="../../images/left_heading.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle">&nbsp;Customers</td>

   	</tr>

   	<tr id="asimanagecust" style="display:none" onmouseout="unframe('asimanagecustlink1');"

   				onmouseover="frame('asimanagecustlink1');">

   	<td id="asimanagecustlink1" class="navlinkleft" onclick="LeftActivate('asimanagecustlink1','navlinkleft');

   								SetTask('Manage customers'); CheckNavState(); SetWinLoc('iMISwin:iMISMEM.Name-ExecPortfolio');">

   					Manage customers

   	</td>

   	</tr>

5. Scroll to the line that contains the menu item you want to modify, and find the SetTask value near the end of the line. This text controls the task description that displays at the top of the workspace.
6. Make your changes, and save the file.
