Configure image thumbnail size in CCMS Desktop

The CCMS can display thumbnails of images in Search Results and other locations to help you identify the image you need. For CCMS Desktop, you can determine the size of these thumbnails.

1. In the TEXTML Administration perspective, connect to your server.
2. Locate the multiimage.xml file in the repository's /system/conf collection.
3. Check out the file and open it for editing.
4. Use the <thumbnails> element to set the following attributes:
   • @defaultscale – Enter the scaling factor initially applied to an image.

     In the example below, the image scales to 50% of its original size. If the result is an image that exceeds maxsize or is less than minsize in either dimension, a recalculation results in a thumbnail that fits within the range for minimum and maximum size.

     If the original, unscaled image, such as an icon, is smaller than the minimum size, then it is left as is.

   • @minsize – Enter the minimum width or height, in pixels, of a thumbnail preview.
   • @maxsize – Enter the maximum width or height, in pixels, of a thumbnail preview.

   <thumbnails defaultscale="0.5" minsize="150" maxsize="600"/>

5. Optional: Continue to Configure alternate text during image insertion.
6. Save, close, and check in the file.
7. Inform users of the changes.
   The changes are automatically applied once users close and then reopen their IXIA CCMS Desktop. Users can also apply the changes without restarting their CCMS Desktop by clicking IXIA CCMS > Synchronize Configuration.
