Strategy SDK provides a Web Customization Editor that can be used to create a customization plug-in. The following steps show how to create the plug-in and deploy.
1. Create a new plugin in the Web Customization Editor and give it a meaningful name.
2. In the "Application Settings" tab, navigate through Strategy Web Configuration -> Pages ->Html5Vi(HTML5 VI Page) -> CSS -> Customizations.
3. Right-click on Html5ViPage.css and select the "new selector" option.
4. Type ".mstrmojo-scrolltrack.vertical" (no need quotation marks) and click OK.
5. Right-click on the new selector and choose "new property".
6. Use the property "width" with the value "15px !important".
7. Right-click on oivmPage.css and select the "new selector" option.
8. Type ".mstrmojo-scrolltrack.horizontal" (no need quotation marks) and click OK.
9. Right-click on the new selector and choose "new property".
10. Use the property "height" with the value "15px !important".
11. Restart your web server

The Strategy SDK allows you to customize the standard Strategy Web interface, and extend and integrate the Strategy business intelligence functionality into other applications. However, before changing the way Strategy Web products look or behave, it is helpful to understand how the application is built.
