6.2.5 User Interface Elements
The user interface elements of the Web-Based System Manager container are
described in the following sections:
Note: The figures are provided as an example to illustrate the user interface
elements. The rendering of details of the title bar, menu bar, and so on, vary
depending upon the client system on which the applet is running (Figure 15).
Figure 15. Web-Based System Manager User Menu
The menu bar may be shown or hidden at the user’s option. A hidden menu bar
may be retrieved through a pop-up menu on the main view area background.
The following menu items are meant to reflect actions that are common across
most Web-Based System Managers containers. Additional choices are included
for functions that have specific object types.
6.2.5.1 Menu
The object menu contains actions that globally apply to the current container. In
each container type, the object menu is titled with the name of the type of object
included in the menu. For example, in the users container the object menu is
titled User, in the printer’s container, the menu is titled Printer, and so on. The
basic object menu choices are:
New
Create a new instance of the object type contained in current window.
This action is equivalent to opening the default template object for the
container.
Switch Administrator (applet and remote mode only)
Switch to another user. A dialog box is opened for logging in as
another user. Following authentication, the new user's administrative
rights are used for actions on the contents of the current container.
