Solution opening modes

By default, each shared web application opens in a new dedicated window. You can adjust the way how printing solutions adjust to your specific working requirements. There are three solution opening modes available:

  • Opening mode 0: default mode. This mode opens the printing solution as a separate instance of Web Client. Each solution opens in a new dedicated window.

    If you haven't done any mode changing so far or if the openMode parameter in URL is not present, this mode is active. To re-activate the Opening mode 0, insert openMode=0 or openMode=newInstance into the web printing site address.

    Example 1

    webclient:?server=http://<servername>/PowerFormsWeb&openMode=0&authToken=<token content>

  • Opening mode 1: solution reload mode. The previously opened printing solution reloads in the same window.

    To activate this mode, insert openMode=1 or openMode=existingInstance into the web printing site address.

    Example 2. 

    webclient:?server=http://<servername>/PowerFormsWeb&openMode=1&authToken=<token content>

    Tip

    Use the Opening mode 1 if you want to avoid re-opening the solution in a new window.

  • Opening mode 2: variable reload mode. Only variable values are reloaded. The solution remains unchanged – as presented in the currently opened window.

    To activate this mode, insert openMode=2 or openMode=reloadVariables into the web printing site address.

    Example 3

    webclient:?server=http://<servername>/PowerFormsWeb&openMode=2&authToken=<token content>

    Tip

    Opening mode 2 resets the variable values on an opened printing solution. Use it to get the latest values if changes are expected over time.
