Icons – Horizontal App

  • The Icons – Horizontal app displays a series of links/buttons where each includes an icon image with optional icon text. A content manager can choose a custom icon or an icon from the Blackboard icon library as seen in the Template Configuration Window in Web Community Manager. Each icon image can be set to custom dimensions to be as small or large as necessary along with an overall width of the entire link/button in order to create more compact series or larger grid style presentations. The Icons – Horizontal app displays icons aligned left to right, will wrap where and when necessary, and the icon image aligned above the text.

    Pro Tip: This app can be used in a variety of ways. Upload custom icons for a unique look, or display logos, photos or graphics. Not loving the location or styling of the global icons on your template? Simply set your number of global icons to 0 within the template and add icons via this app to your desired location.
