Silicon Office 2001 User Interface |
The look and operation of Silicon Office is fully customisable. A range of built-in editors can dramatically change the appearance of Silicon Office, so that the user would not realise it was Silicon Office which was running, but rather a fully tailored, customised application specific for the user.
Built-In customisation editors include:
Editor | Description | File Type | Screen Shot |
Pull Down Menu Editor | Allows for building the main pull down menu or menu's which appear for a particular window. | .mnu | Menu Editor |
Toolbar Editor | The toolbar editor allows for building toolbars which have small icons for fast access to commonly used options. | .tbr | Toolbar Editor |
Screen Designer | The screen designer can be used to build input and display screens for databases or any other information. | .scr | Screen Designer |
Windows Objects | Standard and enhanced windows objects are placed on screen files to control how information is displayed or manipulated. | .scr | Object Pallet Object Properties Dialog |
Frame Sets | Frames are supported to display different files at the same time. Frame definitions are similar to HTML frame definitions. | .sfd | Frames |
Access Restrictions | Command line access, and access to any built-in utility can be removed to prevent unauthorised 'fiddling' from untrusted users. | n/a |
