107One of the more powerful features of the Librarian Interface is the ability to model different workflows, or progressions through the various view tabs. For instance a simple user might prefer the Librarian Interface without any of the web browsing or mirroring capability, while a user 'in the field' might prefer a Librarian Interface which does everything up to the create step but instead has an export ability to send thier collection to a central 'repository'. Use the 'Workflow' tab of the preferences pane to customise what views are available. Check the box next to the view you wish to be available, otherwise leave it unchecked to cause that view to be disabled. You can use the combobox at the bottom of this page to select predetermined configurations of settings. Once you are done, closing the preferences dialog will establish these workflow settings. Note that these settings are stored with the collection, and not in the Librarian Interface configuration file. In fact the workflow settings in the configuration file are used to hide the view tabs in the Librarian Interface, rather than just disable them (useful for Librarian Interface administrators).

110If you wish to connect to the interent, such as when Browsing or Mirroring your files (see 3.0 and 4.0 for details), but you must connect via a proxy, then the 'Connection' tab of the preferences dialog is used to set the proxy information. Check the box to enabled proxy connection then fill in the details of the proxy host address and port number. When you close the preferences dialog the proxy connection will be established.

113During the course of a session you may be provided with one or more warning dialogs. These dialogs inform you of possible unforeseen consequences of an action (such as metadata that is added to a folder automatically being persistantly inherited by all the child files and folders of that folder). If you wish you may choose to disable these dialogs by checking the 'Do not show this warning again' box. However if you later decide to re-enable a warning message then the third tab of the preferences dialog, 'Warnings', will allow you to do this. Simply check the box next to the warning message you wish to show again, selected from the list of dialogs.
