Enable Image Viewer Quick Start

The Quick Start feature speeds up the time it takes to start the Image Viewer application. When you typically open an image in Workplace with Image View, there is a slight delay while a new browser session and the Java™ application are initialized. Your administrator can configure your site to use Image Viewer Quick Start to initialize an Image Viewer session at the same time that a web browser session is started so that Image Viewer loads quickly when you open an image. You can enable or disable Quick Start on each workstation that you use to access Workplace.

When Quick Start is enabled on a Windows client, an icon is displayed in the System tray (bottom right of the Windows Desktop) and a menu item is added to the Start > Programs > Startup menu. If the workstation is rebooted, the Quick Start feature remains enabled.

The Quick Start feature is disabled by default.

To enable or disable Quick Start on a client

  1. Log into Workplace.
  2. Open an image document to open Image Viewer.
  3. Right-click to open the Image Viewer pop-up menu. Select Preferences > Quick Start to enable or disable the Quick Start feature. A check mark next to the menu item indicates that Quick Start is enabled.

NOTE   Once Quick Start is enabled, the web session will not end until you disable Quick Start or until you explicitly log out of the session with the web server. If the Quick Start feature is enabled, closing the browser window will not terminate the session with the web server.
