CONFIGURING


Specifying Widget settings for a desktop policy
Use the Widgets tab of the Desktop Settings document to control access to Widgets and Live Text for users of the policy.

About this task

Some policy settings include a How to apply this setting column that you can use to establish one of the following conditions for that setting.


Note: If you are not using a server-managed environment, you can use the plugin_customization.ini file either before or after install to control user access to Widgets and Live Text functionality. You can also use the Widgets preferences panel to set the catalog server, catalog name, and categories to install values, as well as the Show Widgets Toolbar and the My Widgets Sidebar panel preference. Policy settings take precedent over Eclipse preferences.

See the related topic on Default Widgets and Live Text behavior for details on Widgets and Live Text behavior when no policy or preference changes have been made.

For information on the policy settings supported by IBM® iNotes® see the IBM iNotes administration product documentation in the related information links.
