To Create Additional Backdrops

  1. Create the backdrop images. They can be bitmap or pixmap files.

  2. Place the backdrops in one of the following directories. (You may have to create the directory.)

    • System-wide backdrops: /etc/dt/backdrops

    • Personal backdrops: HomeDirectory/.dt/backdrops

  3. Choose Restart Workspace Manager from the Workspace menu.

    The system-wide and personal backdrops are added to the built-in backdrops in /usr/dt/backdrops.

    You can replace an existing built-in backdrop by creating a personal or system-wide backdrop with the same name.
