Customise Sub-Themes

The below only describes what needs to be done in IMSMANG. The sub-theme also needs also to be defined in the imsma.mxd and the map imported again. Contact your GICHD IM advisor for step-by-step instructions.

IMSMA Themes window

IMSMA allows you to add up to five customised themes, called sub-themes, to each of the IMSMA themes. Sub-themes can be created based on any IMSMA fields or custom-defined fields (including subobject CDFs) for that theme. For example, you could modify the Activity theme to include a sub-theme for the Booby Trapped field.

To add sub-themes:

1. From the Customisation menu, select Sub-Themes Manager.


Customise Sub-Themes window

2. The Customise Sub-Themes window displays.

Each theme contains five blank rows for adding a sub-theme. These are labelled UserDefined1, UserDefined2, UserDefined3, UserDefined4, and UserDefined5.

3. Select the row of the sub-theme that you want to assign or reassign.
4. Click the button.

9. The sub-theme is automatically added to the IMSMA Themes.

Once a sub-theme has been assigned to a blank row, that row cannot be unassigned (made blank) again. It can only be reassigned to another sub-theme.

10. Define the sub-theme in the imsma.mxd.
11. Re-import the background map.
