How to Install Demonstration Applications
The
application demonstrates the use of application-defined commands in M-Files
user interface. Two new commands are introduced and placed to M-Files user interface. Both commands are displayed on the task pane with an icon. One of the commands is included in item-specific context menu, too. The application reacts to the command activation and displays a simple pop-up window as a result. |

This application
demonstrates the use of the customized home screen application, replacing the
built-in home screen application that is included in M-Files 10. Note: If you are
using M-Files 2018 or later, refer to Installing
a Customized Home Screen Application in M-Files 2018. The
customized home screen sample application is identical with the built-in home
view, except for the right-pane image. It acts as a reference implementation
for the home screen customizations. The
built-in home screen application uses a known application GUID,
F101258B-FD65-4199-B22F-240B507C0DCC. In order to replace the built-in home
screen, the customized home screen application must use the same GUID. The
sample application can also be used as a starting point for implementing a
customization for other views. In such a case, however, the application GUID
should not be the same as for the built-in home screen application in use. Note:
As the customized home screen disables the built-in home screen, future
updates to the M-Files built-in home screen in new M-Files versions do not
have an effect if a customized home screen is in use. The
application requires M-Files 10 or newer. |
