Quest Applets
 

Lets first start by defining what a Quest Applet is. Quest is an application that really doesn't do too much. The Quest Applets are added to the application to bring functionality. For example, Document Maintenance is a Quest Applet. It brings the Document Functionality to the Tool. The Recycle Bin is another example. Basically all of the Icons on your Workspace are single Quest Applets.

 

The Quest Application does not care what applets are being displayed, It's primary job is to just display them. This makes for a very configurable application. Quest Applets can be added without touching the Quest Application. For example, I write a Notes Client and make it an Applet. I could then give that applet to a set of Quest users, or all Quest users. The Quest Applet can then be dynamically added to your Quest Workspace.

 

Quest Applets can be added and removed in the Application Properties. To access these properties, click on 'File', 'Properties' and then 'Application'.
