Specifications

Main window
To keep things concise, SwitchClient has a single window that supports all its tasks. The
SwitchClient window is displayed when the application is launched (by double-clicking the
application icon, for example).
The SwitchClient window is divided in three sections:
• The topmost section displays a list of buttons; this is the tool bar. In the tool bar, there is
also a filtering field which allows to filter the list of jobs shown based on a part of their name.
• The left section shows a list of filters for the jobs shown in the right section, based on the
job (All jobs, My jobs, Alert jobs or Archive jobs) or based on the Switch Server.
• The rightmost section shows the job cards based on the filtering selected at the left side.
Tool bar
The topmost section of the SwitchClient window displays the tool bar as shown above.
The tool bar offers the following tasks, in the order listed:
•
View Jobs or Messages (only Administrator users)
•
Refresh: refreshes the list of jobs shown
•
Toggle display: toggle between the two different job card sizes or table view
•
Submit file and Submit folder
Each of these tasks is discussed in a separate topic in this section.
