Tips and Tricks
Security query of the browser
For security reasons, some web browsers (e.g. Mozilla Firefox) do not permit direct reading or copying of files in the local user directories. If these actions are triggered by scripts (as in the Web Client), this process must be explicitly allowed by the user. It is possible to allow this action permanently in the dialog so that no more queries will occur.
Change font size
To change the size of the font in the Web Client, change the settings of your browser.
This is how the usual browsers use the keyboard or mouse:
Keystroke | Action |
---|---|
CTRL++ | Enlarges the font |
CTRL+- | Downsizes the font |
CTRL+0 | restores normal font size |
CTRL+ [roll the mouse wheel backwards] | Downsizes the font |
CTRL+ [roll the mouse wheel forward] | Enlarges the font |
With these keystrokes, you can modify (scale) not only the size of the font but also the size of the graphics.
Save credentials
Saving credentials on the local computer – for whatever application – always carries risks. Particular care is required in Web solutions. Never store passwords on computers to which other users have administrative access (Internet cafes, friends' computers).
If you would like to save the login data on your own computer and log on with one click, use tested tools.
Clearing the browser cache
If errors occur during the display, log off, close the window and delete the browser cache.
Hint
Keystrokes to delete browser cache: CTRL+SHIFT ⇧+R
