InfoCenter
The eSuite InfoCenter is the user interface to an applet's
commands and controls with which you
set the applet's properties--such as
background color or font--and
perform actions--such as cutting and
pasting, saving or printing.
The InfoCenter consists of three main elements:
- The action bar, which displays top-level commands and some of their more
frequently used options.
- Pop-ups (called Quick Picks), which appear when you click
a command option. A Quick Pick displays a palette from which to choose an element (such
as a color or a style of text alignment.
- Panels, which appear when you choose certain other command options. These
are comparable, in function, to the dialog boxes used in other applications
to set related groups of properties, such as text and line styles, or to perform
operations (such as saving a new file) that require further user input for
completion.
The AppletContainer applet provides
the mechanism for displaying the InfoCenter.
