We wanted to make some changes to the main header where the logo resides. We felt the logo was a bit too small and wanted to make it slightly more prominent but not too extreme. We also canned the global search altogether.

We’ve run with this for a few months now without finding anything that negatively impacts our platform but as always - if you implement this for your own environment - be sure to be on the lookout for glitches it may cause on your platform.

Here is what we did if there is anyone else out there looking for a similar adjustment.

This allowed us to go to a rendered size of 150w x 70h logo vs the default which says max: 380x72 but the rendered size seems to be a bit less than that so we made this adjustment.

/** Change Site Header Height and Logo Adjustment **/

/** Again - not too much bigger **/
/** This refers to logo itself **/
doc-layout-internal-header .internal-header-logo a img {
height: auto;
max-height: none !important;
width: 150px;
}

/** Removal of the global search **/
doc-layout-global-search-boxed .global-search-boxed-submit {
height: 50%;
visibility: hidden;
}

doc-layout-global-search-boxed .global-search-boxed-input {
height: 50%;
visibility: hidden;
}

/** These help to accommodate the expanded logo **/
/** Values may adjust slightly based on your specific logo size. **/
doc-layout-internal-header {
height: 100px !important;
}

doc-layout-internal-header .internal-header-logo {
height:70px !important;
}

/** End Change Site Header Height and Logo Adjustment **/

Hopefully this is useful for someone someday.

Always find peoples feelings on logos interesting. 


In my case, it came about as a “Can you make this happen?” type of directive.

I personally think most branding is overdone - color schemes are fine.

Like do we really need the logo on every single PowerPoint slide?

Do we really need three logos on the same page?

I feel like most people by a certain point know exactly who they are engaging with.


Was thinking more like, I can almost imagine the conversation in the room where people debate the size, some like large, the smaller is trendy, then theres always the favorite of starts large and shrinks as you scroll down the page….
