How it works

The look of the Optimo Pathfinder interface can be changed to match your organisation’s branding. This is particularly useful if you use Pathfinder in front of your clients. The specific changes you can make are:

Replace the Optimo Pathfinder logo with your logo
Set two or three colours to replace the default Pathfinder colours of dark grey, blue and orange.

Notes:

Everyone in your organisation with a Pathfinder login will see the same custom interface
For a custom logo:
- Your logo will be visible only after you log in to Pathfinder.
- The Optimo Pathfinder logo will still be visible on the login page, and in the footer of Pathfinder when you are logged in
For the custom colours, there are some colours that you cannot customise (e.g. blue buttons, duplicate/delete buttons, warnings)
It is only possible to change colours in the pre-defined accent groups (see below, for examples)

Examples of Custom Colour groups

Example 1 - Three colours

This example maps the accents to three disctinct colours:

Green - accent 1
Purple - accent 2
Yellow - accent 3

Example 2 - Two colour groups (accents 1 and 2 are the same)

In this example, the accent groups are mapped to two colours:

Green for accent 1 and accent 2
Yellow for accent 3

Example 3 - Two colour groups (accents 2 and 3 are the same)

In this example, the accent groups are mapped to two colours:

Black for accent 1 (i.e. the background of the top menu)
Teal for accent 2 and accent 3

Accent group details

You can map the default orange, dark grey and blue (except for functional buttons) to different colours:

When choosing your colours, you can nominate up to three custom colours. Please note that the custom colours are applied in pre-defined groups and have a few guidlines:

Location

Guidelines

Accent 1

(dark grey in the default Pathfinder interface)

The background on the main top menu.

Works well as a either a darker, secondary colour from your style guide or a dark neutral grey/black.
Needs to contrast with white and Accent 3, because text in those colours will be superimposed on it
Can be the same colour as Accent 2, if you would like a more cohesive look. See example 2, above.

Accent 2

(blue in the default Pathfinder interface)

Icons and headings at the 'Current situation' step.

A good option for a secondary colour from your style guide (especially if you have a bright one you don’t want to overpower your interface)
Can be the same colour as either accent 1 or accent 3 if you would like a more cohesive appearance. See examples 2 and 3, above.
White text will be superimposed on it (so it shouldn’t be too light)

Accent 3

(orange in the default Pathfinder interface)

The selected items on the top menu
Sub-headings at ‘Current situation’ and ‘Results’ steps

If you have a signature colour, then it often looks good when mapped to Accent 3.
This color can be the same as accent 2, if you would like more cohesive look. See example 3, above.
Should contrast with Accent 1
White text will be superimposed on it (so it shouldn’t be too light)

How to request your logo and custom colours for the Pathfinder interface

Step 1: Nominate your custom colours

Please define the colours in RBG or hex codes.
Some options for defining your colours are:

Send us your style guide or branding guidelines

If you have an existing style guide or branding guidelines, you can send it to us, and we can make some samples for you to choose from.

Tell us one signature colour

Tell us:

Your signature colour
(optional) A complimentary dark, neutral colour (e.g. black, dark grey, navy blue). If you don’t suggest one, we can find a good match for you.

Define all the accent colours

We require three accent colours:

Accent 1
Accent 2
Accent 3

For more details and guidance, please see the ‘Accent examples’ and ‘Accent group details’ sections, above.

Step 2 - Get your logo file

For best results, we prefer PNG format with a transparent background.
Please note that the logos with similar dimensions to the existing Pathfinder logo (i.e horizontal, rather than vertical or square) fit best.
If you have multiple logo versions, you can send us them all, and we can pick which one would fit best.

Step 3 - Send your request and approve your custom interface

Once you’ve chosen your colours and got your logo file, please email support@optimofinancial.com.au:
1. Your logo file
2. Your custom colours

If you’d like to request changes, we’re happy to accommodate them
