This module can be configured using Manager. For instructions, see Home Panel.
The Info Module implements the Home Panel, which acts as an entry point or home base for end users. The contents of the Home Panel can include text, images, and UI elements like buttons and links to launch web pages, invoke commands, and run workflows. The contents are defined in HTML.
Home Panel in the Desktop interface (rear), and in the Handheld interface
If you want the user to see the Home Panel when the viewer launches, you must configure the following properties:
In the Info Module's InfoViewModel
, set the included
property to true
.
In the Shells Module, set the homePanelVisible
property to true
.
For the Desktop and Tablet interfaces only, in the Shells Module's ShellViewModel
, set the dataFrameOpenByDefault
property to true
.
In the Desktop and Tablet interfaces, the Home Panel is hosted in the Data Frame. Setting dataFrameOpenByDefault
to true
ensures that the Data Frame is open when the viewer launches.
The Info Module and Home Panel were introduced in version 1.3 of the HTML5 Viewer.
