Appboard/2.4/builder/help menu configuration

Revision as of 15:11, 21 October 2013 by imported>Jason.nicholls


The Help menu is shown both in the Builder and Viewer and by default includes the following entries:

  • Change Password
  • Help
  • About

It's possible to change the items shown in the help menu which can prove useful in a production environment where the Help (link to product documentation) and About items may not be of use to the actual end-users. Also it's possible to add new items for convenience.

The following file shows the XML configuration for the menu:

[INSTALL_HOME]/server/webapps/enportal/WEB-INF/xmlroot/appboard/config/actions.xml

[xml,N] <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration>

 <obj className="appboard.actions" id="viewerActions">
   <association name="actions">
     <obj className="appboard.actions.Action" label="Change Password" href="/enportal/servlet/pd/vdir/system/user/password/Change Password" />
     <obj className="appboard.actions.Action" label="Help" href="http://edgedoc.edge-technologies.com/docs/appboard/2.4" />
     <obj className="appboard.actions.Action" label="About" href="/enportal/framework/Help/appboard_about.jsp" />
   </association>
 </obj>

</configuration>

By default this file is included in full archives of the system and will be retained when upgrading.
