| Make Internet URLs into Hotspots | Enable this setting if you want Notes to change URLs into clickable hotspots. |
| Textured Workspace | Enable this setting if you want the user's workspace to appear three-dimensional. |
| Right double-click closes window | Enable this setting if you want to allow the user to close the current Notes window by right double-clicking the mouse. The setting applies only to Microsoft® Windows®. |
| Enable Java applets | Enable this setting if you want to allow Java applets to run in Notes. To run a Java applet, the Web page's server must access the user's system. |
| Enable JavaScript™ | Enable this setting to allow Notes to provide support for running JavaScript through the Web Navigator on Windows. |
| Enable Java access from JavaScript | Enable this setting to run LiveConnect from a Web browser, if the applet is configured to include the CORBA back-end classes. The option corresponds to the NOTES.INI setting EnableLiveConnect(=1). |
| Enable Plugins in Notes Browser | Enable this setting to allow plugins to run in the Notes Browser. |
| Enable ActiveX in Notes Browser | Enable this setting to allow ActiveX controls in the Notes Browser. This setting allows the Notes browser to recognize HTML Object tag references for downloading and installing ActiveX controls. |
| Accept cookies | Enable this setting to allow users to accept Internet cookies. |
| Disable View updates as a background task | Enable this setting to disable Notes updating views as a background task. By default, Notes updates views in the background so that users can continue working while Notes performs intensive update tasks. |
| Process Print requests as a background task | By default, Notes prints in the foreground and at least momentarily interrupts other work. You can set printing to occur in the background so that users can continue working while Notes performs intensive printing tasks. |
| Retain View column sorting | Enable this setting to enable Notes to allow users to save the way columns sort in databases that allow them to change the sorting (by clicking an arrow in a column heading). For example, this is helpful if a user always wants their mail view sorted with latest messages at the top, or contacts sorted by Business. |
| Enable MS Office 97 SendTo to Notes | When enabled, this option causes all mail "Send To" commands in Microsoft Office 97 applications to start Notes mail and send the file as an attachment in a mail memo. This option appears if a user has Microsoft Office 97, or certain other Microsoft applications such as Visual Basic, installed. It is not necessary for later releases of Microsoft Office. |

| Show extended accelerators | Enable this setting to allow users to use keyboard accelerators (Windows ALT+keys) to access on-screen elements such as the window tabs and action bars. By default, extended accelerators are turned on. |
| Enable MIME save warning | Enable this setting if you want Notes to notify users when data they want to send over the Internet cannot be converted to MIME format. |
| Enable Unicode display | Enable this setting is you want users to create or read documents that contain special characters that aren't found on your default keyboard, such as an ae dipthong (æ), a pound sign (£), or a plus/minus sign (±). To see these characters in a document, users may need additional Unicode-based fonts installed on their Windows operating system. Notes comes with five different Monotype WorldType ™ fonts to install directly from the CD-ROM. |
| Launch the CORBA (DIIOP) server on Preview in web browser | This preference is intended for Domino Designers who preview their designs through the Notes client. When a designer previews any element of a Notes database in a Web browser, Notes launches a limited version of the Domino server to serve the Web page resulting from the element. If the element (for example, a Notes form) contains a Java™ applet created with the Java Notes classes, use this setting to allow Notes to launch a limited version of a CORBA (DIIOP) server to support the applet's classes. |
| Display Window Menu | Enable this setting if you want the Window menu to appear between the Actions and Help menus. Use this menu to switch to any open window, or choose "Windows" to manage open windows. |
| Standard dialog boxes | Enable this setting if you want Notes to show standard operating system dialog boxes. By default, Notes dialog boxes appear with a custom appearance. |
| Strict Date/Time Input | With the "Strict date/time input" option turned on, Notes does not "guess" at the correct dates and times. With it turned off, Notes "guesses" the date or time you entered once you press TAB or click out of the field. (For example, if someone enters "24/06/2001" in a date field and presses TAB, Notes guesses that they mean "Sat 06/24/2001" and changes it as such.) Notes can "guess" wrong, so having to enter the full date or time ensures greater accuracy. |
| Use inline autocomplete in the address bar | Enable this setting if you want a URL to be filled in as a user types characters in the Address box on the toolbar. The displayed URL is based on entries they have previously entered. Typing a single letter displays a listing of all their URLs that begin with that letter. |
| Use Tab to navigate Read-Only Documents | Enable this setting if you want to use TAB to move from object to object (for example, linked text, hotspots, document links and so on) in a read-only document. However, with this option enabled, users can no longer use TAB, while reading a document, to navigate to the next document in the view. |
| Use Accessibility Keyboard navigation | Enable this setting if you want accessibility keyboard navigation to disable the up and down arrows and enables users to use TAB to move from field to field in a document that is in edit mode. |
| Use System Colors | Enable this option to set Notes user interface colors to match, where possible, colors in the scheme specified in the Windows Control Panel - Display - Appearance.
Note This setting does not apply to Lotus Notes 8 Standard configuration. |
| Enable Icon Popup Help in View | Enable this setting to display popup help for icons. |
| Expand Names field contents when printing | Enable this option to allow users to specify, when printing memos or Calendar entries, whether to print the contents of the entire "To:" or "cc:" fields, or to limit it to three lines. It is disabled by default. |
| Use Notes (not Web) query syntax in the view search bar | Enable this option to use Notes syntax instead of Web syntax in the view search bar. |
| Treat shortcuts as files when selecting in file dialogs | Enable this option to control whether a shortcut chosen as the destination location when saving attachments is treated as a regular file, in which case the shortcut will be overwritten by the file being saved, or as a shortcut file, in which case the file being saved overwrites the file location that the shortcut points to. By default, a file being saved to a shortcut location overwrites the file that the shortcut points to. |
| Do not prompt when marking all documents read or unread | Enable this setting if you do not want Notes to prompt users before marking all documents read or unread. By default, Notes shows which documents you have or have not read in a view. Documents that are new or documents that you have not read have red stars next to their titles in a view. You can mark documents as "read" or "unread" yourself, without having to open the documents. |
| Do not prompt when closing all currently open windows tabs | Enable this setting if you do not want Notes to prompt users before closing the open windows tabs. |
| Do not prompt when exiting Notes, Domino Designer/Administrator | Enable this option if you do not want Notes to prompt users before exiting any of the Notes and Domino clients. By default, Notes prompts users before exiting the clients. Users can disable the message the first time they are prompted or by setting a Notes preference. |
| Do not prompt when closing a document with edited attachments | Enable this setting to prevent Notes from prompting users before closing a document after the user has edited an attachment to that document. Prompting users helps to ensure that changes to the attachment are saved in the Notes document. By default, users see the prompt message. |

| Encrypt using | If you chose to locally encrypt replicas, this field appears. Choose one of these encryption strengths to apply to replicas:
- Strong Encryption - provides the strongest protection. Choose this option when security requirements are paramount and the resulting database access performance is acceptable.
- Medium Encryption - provides the right balance among security, strength, and fast database access. This level is probably the right choice for most users.
- Simple Encryption - provides protection against casual snooping.
|
