Wallboard – Bookmark and Auto-Login
A new icon is available on the footer bar to enable the wallboard to automatically
come back online after a power outage or a reboot.
This will allow the current wallboard to be added to the IE favourites or Firefox
bookmarks in such a way that the login process can be avoided for that wallboard.
When Safari or Chrome browsers are used, the icon will be greyed out. Firefox 4 is
the minimum version required when using the “Add Favourite” feature of the
Wallboard.
When clicked, the icon will show the browser's standard dialog that allows a URL to
be added.
This URL will contain a GUID that is unique to that wallboard user. It will be named
according to the wallboard name. Once the link is available, navigating to it will enter
the wallboard without a login process.
This allows for the link, or a command file containing the link, to be added to the
Windows Start-up folder so that the wallboard can automatically start when the
system is rebooted (when combined with Windows auto-login) or the user logs in.
That link can also be used as the "Home" location when the browser is launched.
Wallboard – Statistics values on Leader Board
The Leader Board table feature in the wallboard has been further enhanced by
allowing you to show the actual value of the statistic associated with the agent.
A new configuration setting has been added to the Leader board. Two radio buttons
will allow the wallboard user to show or hide the statistics data associated with the
agents. By default, the statistics will be hidden when a new leader board is created or
when upgrading leader boards.
