Installing plug-in modules

 

When first running the viewer on your workstation, it queries the server for a list of licensed plug-ins. If it finds any, the viewer displays the modules available to you, along with their respective version numbers.

 

To manually call up the list of available plug-ins,

  1. Flick the File menu.

  2. Select Update Plug-ins. The plug-in window appears, listing the licensed plug-in modules.

To install or update a plug-in,

 

  1. Check the box next to the plug-in name. Select all the plug-ins you want to install.

  2. Click OK.

The viewer downloads and installs the plug-in. Some plug-in modules require an extra install process. If needed, another prompt may appear asking if you want to install the additional component. Click on OK to install the application.

 

The 32-bit and 64-bit viewer requires corresponding plugin modules. If you upgrade or downgrade from one viewer to another, you must reinstall all the plugin modules.

 

Refer to the relevant help subsection for specific details on how to use the features in a plug-in module.
