  • Restyled fields.

    Fields on forms are now restyled, depending on their type and properties. For example, a text or number field will render in the same way as an OS edit control, replacing the small open and close brackets with a native edit control. Dialog lists that do not allow multiple values are converted to OS comboboxes, while dialog lists that do allow multiple values are not. Updating the look of these fields gives an updated look to the form.

  • Improved support for Domino policies.
    HCL Notes now has improved support for Domino Policies. Policy settings are applied at initial setup and each time the application is restarted.
    Note: Not all policy settings have been tested with HCL Notes clients.
  • Navigators in the application are restyled.
  • Bevelled edges are now an option when creating app icons.
