Known Limitations

Java is obviously still a relatively new language. Because of that, it may not support some user interface standards you expect to see. ILux was built to the Java 1.1.4 specification available during its development. Future releases will support later versions of the JavaScript specification.

Java does not currently support double-click events. Double-clicking on a folder to open it in the ILux main client window is not supported. Click on the plus sign instead.

The Java SDK does not support shortcuts keys accessable using the COMMAND or ALT key. You must use the mouse instead.

Browser Windows

It is not possible in all environments or operating system to detect whether a browser window is currently open. Because of this, each time you click on Help in ILux a new browser window is launched.

Unsupported Characters

Unsupported characters used in folder, report, filter or other object names are not allowed.

Characters disallowed in all object names:

'

(single quote character)

"

(double quote character)

\

(back slash character)

= / , ^ ( ) + - * % # < > ?

Characters also disallowed in filter names:

~ ` ! { } [ ]

In addition, the first character of filter names must be alphabetic or underscore only. If you attempt to enter any of these characters, ILux disables the keystroke.

Printing

Due to the lack of support from within JavaScript, printing within the help browser window is only supported by using a shortcut key. See the work around for more information.
