Hi All,
I have recently moved to OBIEE11g and am learning the hard way. I am facing issues almost every day and am able to solve most of them with the help other forums and also little bit with my own experience. I have made a small list of customizations in OBIEE11g. Hope it helps.
NOTE: The following solution has worked for me and thus I have posted them.
For custom skin related queries, I would request you all to just follow the steps mentioned in the following link:
