Change webtop background not login page
I must be missing something as I can't find the setting in Advanced customization to change the background of a webtop after login, I want to change it from the standard grey. I have found the settings for the login page but not for the actual webtop page.?? Thanks in advance

F5 should release a good guide / sol for this one day. it is always a lot of searching.
have you tried via the Access Policy ›› Customization : Quick Start way? is see two places that might be it Common Page Styles / Common Webtops Settings.

I have no idea if this is the right way to do it, but it is how we have done it:
Go into advanced customization, change the Edit Mode to Advanced, and then expand: Customization Settings -> Access Profiles -> your_ap_name -> Common
Look for apm_full.css (and apm_mobile.css if you use mobile access as well). Look for the body.webtop section, it will look like this:
body.webtop{ background: %[page_background_color] url(/public/images/full_wt/body-background.png) repeat-x center 72px; }Change it to look like this:body.webtop{ background: colourcode; }- dsl77_135646

anyone knows how to use a custom background image (same example, image instead of bg-color)? I've uploaded the image and point to it
background: url(/public/images/customization/.png) top left;But it doesn't load the picture.

I'm not certain as I haven't tried it, but I see a couple of issues with your statement...
You have a "/" before the ".png" and also, I think you need to put the path inside " "
And also, shorthand may not work, try using background-image.
Then if you want it to be top left aligned, you need to have it on a different line using background-position.
So try it like this:
background-image: url("/public/images/customization.png");background-position: left top; - amolari

weird... it seems to be some kind of permission issue. The customized background is fetched by the client (see that in http traces). But it cannot access to it (connection reset) and a white background is displayed. I see on the devices that customization images are places in "
" There I have the webtop background image and the header logo (which is correctly displayed). The files are physically in that directory but in the URI are fetched from another place: URI=/var/sam/www/webtop/public/images/customization/
which corresponds to directory "/public/images/customization/Marketing/Citrix-APM.app/Citrix-APM_apm_access_general_ui/
". In that directory there are links (the one for the header has been created by the GUI customization)/var/sam/www/webtop/public/images/customization/Marketing/Citrix-APM.app/Citrix-APM_apm_access_general_uilrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 95 Jul 16 20:46 background.jpg -> /var/sam/www/webtop/public/images/customization/Marketing/2_Applicationseite_Citrix_smaller.jpg lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 90 Jul 16 20:23 logo_image_en.png -> /var/sam/www/webtop/public/images/customization/Marketing/abc_Logo_white-grey_small.pngI've created the background.jpg link pointing to physical file. This works for the header but not for the background. Any idea? Thanks. Alexandre

See the same issue based on browser type and version. 1 possibility I am guessing is that the http request for the image comes after the policy evaluation has ended and probably causes the request to fail.
I am thinking of responding to specific URIs which are part of the webtop in an iRule after uploading the contents to iFile/Hosted content
