Configurable KeyBar & Context Menus
The configurable KeyBar allows users to customize a set of soft
buttons to control and invoke any host specific keys or application
operation. Users can select from a set of pre-defined KeyBar
templates. In addition they can also configure up to six custom
templates of their own. Users can navigate between a selected set
of KeyBar templates.
A KeyBar can also be made to appear as a Context Menu, which
would appear when you tap and hold the stylus on the terminal
display screen.
Meta keys
Meta keys are special keys that you can configure to act much like
the state keys "Shift", "Alt" and "Ctrl" on a regular keyboard. They
are used together with other keys to activate special actions. Meta
keys can be assigned to hardware keys for use in key remapping.
They are especially helpful on devices with limited number of
physical keys.
Auto-start Sessions
Users may launch multiple host sessions when our application gets
started. This can simply be enabled via session specific checkbox
configuration.
Automatic login
You can easily automate the login process to your host application.
Until now, we had suggested using a pre-recorded macro which
could be configured to launch automatically when a user session
connected to the host application. With version 5.5, we recommend
using scripting instead. An auto-login script can be configured to
launch when a session connects, and then if necessary, prompt the
user for a user id and password. Sample auto-login scripts are
discussed in the Scripting Guide.
HotSpots
A HotSpot is an invisible field on the terminal screen where a user
can tap with a stylus to execute a function. A Hotspot thus allows a
user to interact with the host application with minimal needs for the
special keypads. Instead the user can directly tap on the text in the
terminal display to invoke the desired operation.
The pre-defined HotSpots are static. With version 5.5, Dynamic
HotSpots customized for your host application are easily
implemented using a Script.
