12.3 Setting Up Multiple Remote Applications on a Single Page

You can use either of the following methods to set up multiple remote applications on a single Workspace or Folder.

12.3.1 Launching a Remote Application as an Accessory

If you want to view more than one remote application on a single Vibe page, you can set up one remote application in your workspace, and then you can view subsequent remote applications as accessories.

For more information on viewing remote applications as accessories, see Section 12.2.2, Setting Up a Remote Application as an Accessory.

12.3.2 Creating a New Workspace or Folder View That Supports Multiple Remote Applications

If you don’t want your remote application to be displayed as an accessory, but you still want to enable multiple remote applications on a single page, you can accomplish this by creating a new view for the workspace or folder where you want the remote applications to be displayed, and then configuring the workspace or folder to support the new view.

Creating the New View

  1. Navigate to the Workspace or Folder where you want to enable additional remote applications.

  2. Click the Configure icon next to the workspace or folder title, then click Form/View Designers.

    The Form and View Designers page is launched.

  3. Click New > Folder Views or Workspace Views, depending on whether you are working in a workspace or folder.

  4. Provide a caption and a name for the new definition.

  5. Select the type of workspace for which you want to create the new definition.

  6. Click OK.

  7. Click the Workspace Add/Modify Form link.

  8. In the box on the right side of the page, click Add.

  9. In the Form Elements section, click Remote Application.

  10. Provide a caption and a name for the new remote application field that you’re creating.

    The text that you enter in the Caption field is what the remote application field is called in the workspace or folder form.

  11. Click OK.

  12. Click Close to exit the Form and View Designer.
