Setting Shortcuts to Start the Client Program

This manual is in pilot operation.

You can create shortcuts to start the client program on the desktop of your PC as follows.[1]

Manager

  1. With the mouse cursor (arrow), point to a place on the desktop where there is no icon and right-click.
    → A menu will be displayed.

  2. Select New  Shortcut from the menu.
    → The "Create Shortcut" dialog will be displayed.

  3. Enter the URL in the dialog and click the Next button. The URL is as follows:

    http://(host):(port)/fusionplace/app/manager.fplp

    (host) is the hostname of the destination server, and (port) is the port number.

    Hostname:
    If using fusion_place standalone, the hostname is localhost.
    If using a web server, specify the fixed IP address or hostname of the server machine.

    Port number:
    It is the port number specified during fusion_place installation.
    The initial suggested value by the installer is 50000.

    (Example 1) If using standalone and the port number is 50000, the URL is as follows:

    http://localhost:50000/fusionplace/app/manager.fplp

    (Example 2) If using a web server, the server’s IP address is 192.168.0.2, and the port number is 50000, the URL is as follows:

    http://192.168.0.2:50000/fusionplace/app/manager.fplp

    (Example 3) If using a web server and the server’s hostname is fusionplace.mycompany.com, and the port number is 50000, the URL is as follows:

    http://fusionplace.mycompany.com:50000/fusionplace/app/manager.fplp

  4. ⇒ Move to the next dialog and you will be asked to enter the name of the shortcut.

  5. Enter an appropriate name for the shortcut in the dialog and click the Finish button.
    ⇒ A shortcut will be created on the desktop.

Browser & Contributor

Shortcuts for [Browser] and [Contributor] can be created in the same way as for [Manager]. However, change the URLs as follows:

[Browser]: http://(host):(port)/fusionplace/app/browser.fplp

[Contributor]: http://(host):(port)/fusionplace/app/contributor.fplp


1. The behavior when clicking the shortcut is the same as operating from the web menu.
