INSTALLING


Create the deployment widget

You can create the deployment widget directly in the catalog, as described here, or create the widget using a configuration wizard and then publish the widget to the catalog. You can simplify the process described here by using the Features and Plugins wizard in Notes®.

About this task

Perform these steps to open the widgets catalog, create the widget, and attach the extension.xml file that you created earlier.

Note: The Start Configuring Widgets toolbar button contains a Features and Plugins option. This option launches a wizard sequence designed to simplify the process of creating a Notes client plug-in deployment widget. The wizard guides you through the widget definition and extension.xml creation process. For details, see How do I configure a Features and Plugins deployment widget? in Notes user help.

Procedure

1. Open the widgets catalog by clicking Browse the Widget Catalog in the My Widgets sidebar panel toolbar.

2. Create the widget.
