Making Applets Visible in Specific Screen Resolutions

In this use case, you make the form applet in the Accounts List view of the Accounts screen in the Siebel application visible only on computer screens with a screen resolution width of more than 1024 pixels.

To make an applet visible in specific screen resolutions 

1. In the Siebel application, complete the following steps to determine the name of the view that contains the applet for which you want to change visibility and to determine the name of that applet:

   1. Navigate to the Accounts screen, then the Accounts List view.

   2. In the application-level menu, click Help, and select About View from the menu that appears.

   3. In the About View dialog box, note that the name of the view is Account List View and the name of the form applet is SIS Account Entry Applet, and click OK.

2. In the Siebel application, complete the following steps to determine the runtime version of the Siebel application that you are using:

   1. In the application-level menu, click Help, and select About SRF from the menu that appears.

   2. In the About SRF dialog box, note the version number of the Siebel Repository File (SRF) in the File Name field, and click OK.

3. In Siebel CRM Composer, complete the following steps to make the form applet in the Accounts List view of the Siebel application visible only on computer screens with a screen resolution width of more than 1024 pixels:

   1. Navigate to the View screen, and query for Account List View in the Name field.

   2. Click the cogwheel icon, and select Lock Object from the menu that appears.

   3. Scroll down to the View Web Template Items list, and enter the following value in the Expression field of the record for the SIS Account Entry Applet: GetProfileAttrAsNum ("Viewport:width")>1024.

   4. In the View screen, click the cogwheel icon, and select Unlock Object from the menu that appears.

4. In Siebel CRM Composer, publish the changes to the applet object.

   For more information, see "Publishing Modifications in Siebel CRM Composer".

5. Change the resolution of your computer screen to a width of less than1024 pixels.

   The first number of the resolution is the screen width in pixels. For example, a resolution of 800 x 600 designates a screen width of 800 pixels. In Microsoft Windows, you can change the resolution of your computer screen by navigating to Control Panel, Display, and then Adjust Resolution.

6. Log out of the Siebel application, log in to it again, and notice the following changes:

   • The form applet no longer appears in the Accounts List view of the Accounts screen.

   • The version number in the File Field in the About SRF dialog box is increased by 1 to the version number that you published.
