This section describes the concepts and procedures on using the other components of Pathway UX.

This table shows the other components of Pathway UX:
Component Description
Menus Pathway UX requires that menus are built under top-tier Menu nodes (folders).
Menu security

In the Thick and Smart Client versions of Pathway the menu is always the first level of security. If a program is not on the menu, then it cannot be accessed.

This feature is still true for the UX version of Pathway. See Menu security.

Browsers
These browsers are supported for Pathway UX:
  • Chrome
  • Firefox
  • Edge
  • Safari
Browser version must be current or earlier.
Note: Pathway UX does not support Internet Explorer.
UX client title page The title in the tab is picked up from the same location as the Smart Client. See Setting up the tab title.
On-line help On-line Help is not available for Pathway UX.
Module parameters If a parameter is changed in Pathway thick or smart client, the Pathway UX Cache must be cleared.

If a parameter is changed in Pathway UX, additional actions are not required in most cases and the changed setting takes place immediately. See Changing module parameters.
