Thumbnail image—Version that appears on the Background Images screen
•
from which users can select an image. Must be 25% of the size of the full size
image.
Many graphics programs provide a feature that will resize a graphic. An easy way
to create a thumbnail image is to first create and save the full size image, then use
the sizing feature in the graphics program to create a version of that image that is
25% of the original size. Save the thumbnail version using a different name.
The PNG files for background images must meet the following requirements for
proper display on the Cisco Unified IP Phone:
Full size image—95 pixels (width) X 34 pixels (height).
•
• Thumbnail image—23 pixels (width) X 8 pixels (height).
Color palette—For best results, set to monochrome (1-bit) when you create a
•
PNG file.
To configure custom background images for the Cisco Unified IP Phone, follow
these steps:
Procedure
Create two PNG files for each image (a full size version and a thumbnail version).
Ensure the PNG files comply with the format guidelines that are listed in the
"PNG File Requirements for Custom Background Images" section on page
Upload the new PNG files that you created to the following subdirectory in the
TFTP server for the Cisco Unified Communications Manager:
/Desktops/95x34x1
The file name and subdirectory parameters are case sensitive. Be sure to
Note
use the forward slash "/" when you specify the subdirectory path.
