Image Paths |
By default, Assure picks up the application which is set in the OpenClient; however, the image path mentioned in this box will overwrite the default path. |
||
Template Page |
A template page is used to reference Cascading Style Sheets which control the look and feel of the rendered items (for example icons, objects, etc.) You do not have to enter a template page name in the field, as Open Client will search the resource paths for the default template page, index.html. If the file is located, it will be used. It references two CSS files; PROIVFixedStyle.css and PROIVDefaultStyle.css, which control the look and feel of the rendered application.
You can also create your template page, which must be called index.html and must be placed in the root of your folder under the appResources folder. The Open Client loads its own CSS files, but properties in these files may be overridden by properties in your CSS files. A250 - Non-Mandatory |
||
Upload Maximum |
Sets the maximum upload size for the file send and receive process. The send and receive process in Open Client requires user interaction, it is not a transparent process. Therefore, when a file is required by the PROIV Virtual Machine, a message box appears which prompts the user to locate the file and manually upload it to PROIV. To avoid the system bottlenecks, it is advisable to set an upload file size limit to prevent users from uploading huge files. N10 - Non-Mandatory |
||
Calendar Control |
Check to enable standard Windows Calendar Control for input of dates. This is enabled on a global basis and does not require any application changes. You can select or deselect this option only when disconnected from PROIV. Once a connection is active, you cannot change the setting; the box and the text are greyed out, but the check is still visible in the box. The default setting for the option is disabled. |
