Displaying View Titles

There are three different titles displayed for a view, as follows:

Title bar of the Siebel application window. The title appears in the title bar, prefixed by the application name and a hyphen, as in Siebel Sales - Account List View. This is specified in the Title property of the view.

View bar tab. In the View bar in the appropriate screen, the tab that navigates to this view. This is specified in the Viewbar Text property of the corresponding screen view object definition.

Screens menu sub-option. In the Screens menu, as a sub-option of the appropriate screen, the menu option that navigates to this view. This is specified in the Menu Text property of the corresponding screen view object definition.

Keep these three title definitions consistent for one view. If at all possible, the text should be identical in all three.

If a view specifies a visibility mode, as indicated by a non-blank Visibility Applet Type property, the title (in all three locations) needs to identify the visibility mode, as indicated in Table 8.
