Lotus Domino Designer 8.5 Help - Displaying a navigator when users open a database

APPLICATION DESIGN

Displaying a navigator when users open a database
You can set up a navigator to appear when users open an IBM® Lotus® Notes® database. The navigator can display in the Navigator pane or in a full-screen window. For example, the interface to an online Help system might be a full-screen navigator. If you set up the database to open a navigator, the initial view of that navigator overrides the default view or the current view for the database.

1. Select the database that contains the navigator you want to display and choose File - Database - Properties.

2. Click the Launch tab.

To display the navigator in a navigation pane, select "When opened in the Notes client: Open designated Navigator."
To display the navigator in a full-screen window, select "When opened in the Notes client: Open designated Navigator in its own window." Note that the regular navigation, view, and preview panes are not available from a full-screen navigator, but users can choose View - Go To and then choose the view name to return to a specific view.

3. Select Standard Navigator in the Type of Navigator field.

4. Select the name of the navigator in the Name field.
