This attribute determines how the application is displayed to the
user. Some settings affect other attributes. For example, in
Object Manager choosing Client Window Management disables the
attributes for configuring the application's size. On the command line
you may specify these other attributes, but they have no effect.

embedded within the web page defined in the object's Emulator Applet Page
attribute.
- Pressing the CONTROL key while clicking a webtop link forces the application to display in an independent window instead.
- When listing object attributes on the command line, this attribute value displays as
mainbrowser. - If the Secure Global Desktop Client is operating in Integrated mode or Java™ technology is not available, an independent window is used instead.
|
| Client window management |

Close Action attribute determines what happens when the user
closes the application's last or main window.
- Pressing the CONTROL key while clicking a webtop link has no effect on the application display.
