Creating MetaXpress Software Group Icons and Adding Them to the
Windows Desktop
After you create the MetaXpress software offline group and add users with the previous
procedure, use the Create Icons command to create icons for the new group. This command
installs shortcuts for new groups to the MetaXpress folder on the Windows desktop. You can
then copy these shortcuts to the Windows desktop. This allows you to choose which software
configuration to start from the desktop.
To create and add group icons to the Windows desktop:
1. Click Start > MetaXpress 6 and then right-click Meta Imaging Series Administrator and
select Run as Administrator to display the Meta Imaging Series Administrator dialog.
2. Click Create Icons.
3. Click OK to exit the Meta Imaging Series Administrator Software.
4. Double-click the MetaXpress 6.x shortcut on the desktop.
5. In the MetaXpress 6.x folder, confirm that a shortcut for the group you create is listed. See
Creating an Offline Version of the MetaXpress Software on page 129 .
6. Right-click the shortcut (for example, MetaXpress Offline) and select Send to Desktop to
create the shortcut on the desktop.
7. Continue to add shortcuts to the desktop, as needed.
8. Double-click the new desktop shortcut to open that instance of the software.
