WebSphere Lombardi Edition 7.2 > Start Lombardi Authoring Environment


Set preferences

Lombardi Authoring Environment provides several settings to control the appearance and functionality of the editors and interfaces that it includes. The following steps describe how to access the preference settings and the following table describes the options that are available.

To set the locale for Lombardi Process Center Console and Authoring Environment, access the Process Center Console by opening your Web browser to the following location: http://[host_name]:[port]/ProcessCenter. Click Preferences in the upper right corner and choose the language that you want from the drop-down list. When you change the locale, you need to exit and then re-start Lombardi Authoring Environment for the change to take effect. (When you are accessing Process Center Console from a browser, you can log out and then log back in for the change to take effect.)

The locale preference selected applies to the user who is currently logged in. Each Lombardi interface started by the same user in the same environment uses this preference setting.

  1. Select File > Preferences from the main menu.
  2. Click the Lombardi entry to display the available options.
  3. Click the option that you want. For example, to set the user name for Blueprint process subscriptions, click the Blueprint option.

The following table describes the options available when setting preferences in Lombardi Authoring Environment:

Option Description
Appearance Control the modeling theme for process diagrams developed in Lombardi Authoring Environment.
Blueprint Set the Blueprint server URL and user name for Blueprint process subscriptions. See Subscribing to Blueprint processes for more information.
Capabilities Control the capabilities of the current user. For example, to create external activities in Lombardi Authoring Environment, you must enable Lombardi Developer Capability and Lombardi Advanced Features.
Documentation Wiki Set the URL for the Documentation Wiki that you want to access from Lombardi Authoring Environment.
JavaScript Set preferences for the JavaScript editor included in Lombardi Authoring Environment. For example, you can choose whether to display JavaScript warnings.
Optimizer Settings Set options for the Optimizer. For example, the KPI thresholds used by the Visualization Modes are the thresholds from the current working version of your process application or toolkit. To use the KPI thresholds from the snapshot (version) of your process application or toolkit that was most recently executed and tracked, change the Optimizer preference setting to: Use the KPI threshold values from the actual version of the Process App/Toolkit.
Passwords Manage the passwords that have been stored when running tasks from the Inspector.
