Sun Microsystems 4.5 manual Using My Desktop, Printing, Using Application Groups

Page 34

Unlike the webtop, you cannot suspend and resume individual applications. Instead, when you log out of SGD, your running applications are either suspended or ended, depending on their resumability settings. See “Suspending and Resuming Applications” on page 11. When you log in again, any suspended applications you have are resumed automatically.

See “Using Applications” on page 9 for more information about running applications using SGD.

Printing

You cannot manage individual print jobs from the Start or Launch Menu and so print jobs go straight to the selected printer.

See “Printing” on page 15 for more information about printing using SGD.

Using Application Groups

If you have arranged any of your webtop content to display in groups, those groups are also used in the Start or Launch Menu. If the group is configured to hide webtop content, the content does not display in the Start or Launch Menu.

Using My Desktop

My Desktop is a feature that enables you to log in and display a full-screen desktop application, without displaying your webtop.

My Desktop displays the desktop application configured for you by an SGD Administrator, for example, a Microsoft Windows desktop.

You start My Desktop by clicking the My Desktop link on the SGD web server Welcome page, at http://server.example.com. This link displays the SGD Login page. Once you have logged in, the My Desktop full-screen desktop application is displayed.

An alternative way to start My Desktop is by going to

http://server.example.com/sgd/mydesktop.

After starting My Desktop, you can close the browser window.
