流过昼夜 提交于 2019-12-23 04:33:55
问题 I have a program on a kiosk with an associated service that updates the program by periodically checking on the web for a newer version of the MSI. If it finds one, it will install it, the program may still be running. To get around the DLL conflicts of the above solution, I rename the assemblies in the MSI with by version so a new version can install while the old is running. The application will poll the install directory for newer version assemblies and if it finds one restart as soon as

问题 I have an application that can be used without authentication on computers in public locations. It's a simple four page application that allows users to apply for a marriage license. Some offices will have a public computer kiosk where applicants can fill out their own information before proceeding to the clerk. They can also do so at home before visiting the office. What considerations should I take to make sure that a user cannot get access to the previous user's input? Some form data will

Detect termination of Citrix session launched by kiosk application

此生再无相见时 提交于 2019-12-19 10:49:09
问题 I am working on a kiosk application which gives the user a selection of Citrix connections. The idea is that the user selects a connection presented by the kiosk application, and then the kiosk launcher initiates the selected connection by running a command similar to this: C:\Program Files\Citrix\ICA Client\wfica32.exe \\server\path\to\icaFile.ica I want the user to stay within the Citrix session - not for any security reason, just to make it a good user experience getting to the selected

问题 How can I programmatically enable/disable an android screen reader service such as TalkBack? I am developing a kiosk type application that will be installed on an Android device that will be loaned to visitors while they visit a particular museum. (We are still in the process of determining what device we will use.) The plan is to only allow users to use our app and not have access to the android settings application. However, we'd like to allow users to configure some accessibility settings.

Kiosk mode for Linux Java Swing application

问题 How can I disable OS-level keyboard shortcuts (e.g. Alt-Tab, Ctrl-Alt-Left/Right, etc.) on a [Ubuntu] Linux machine? I'm developing a full-screen Java Swing app and don't want the user to be able to task switch away from the program arbitrarily. It's not enough to toggle the "always on top" flag; users mustn't be allowed to switch workspaces, migrate focus or any other such things. The machine must function normally before and after the application is executed. Google says that this will

Keeping a Windows application on top of other windows and in focus - always

倾然丶 夕夏残阳落幕 提交于 2019-12-18 05:12:59
问题 I am creating a kiosk application and I want to ensure it is always, no matter what, on top of other Windows applications and the Windows task bar. I am already blocking Windows keyboard commands (alt-tab, etc) but there are still situations that could cause an application to launch and steal the screen. Is it possible to hook into Windows from .NET and continually test whether the application has focus and is on top, and if not then give it focus and make it on top? 回答1: I've actually worked

こ雲淡風輕ζ 提交于 2019-12-17 21:08:44
问题 I am running Windows XP 64 bit. I want to hide the taskbar when I run my application. I tried codes by searching the web. In all those, it hides the task bar. But the problem is, when i open a notepad and maximize it, it is not actually into full screen. Because the space where task bar was there is still blocked with empty space. I want it fit really into full screen mode. 回答1: I've done this by making the application borderless, maximized, and setting it to be Topmost. Here's a perfect

问题 We are looking to print to a POS printer connected where apache is running. Due to design of the application, and deployment, printing should be done from Server (it should detect the order and send to different printers and different formats of printing...bill, kitchen orders, and so on...). For this reason and others (like access application from an iPad for example) we discard options like QZ-Print applet and needst o print directly server side. We searched a lot, and found that there are

The application on Windows Mobile phones are run in kiosk mode where the application autostart in fullscreen-mode after booting and with the users unable to accidentally or willingly access any other parts of the phone. Is it possible on Android to have only one application autostart after booting and prevent users from accidentally (or willingly) access any other parts of the

How do I create a Chrome App effectively acting as a launch page in kiosk mode?

拟墨画扇 提交于 2019-12-13 18:17:51
问题 This is my first Chrome app creation attempt. Our school wants to create kiosk app for Chromebooks that will launch a webpage on our web server that is filled with shortcut links. This is mainly so young users like kindergarteners can bypass the login screen making the login screen is still available for older students. I spent a little bit of time on it yesterday and deployed it through the Google Apps management console, but the app does not display on our devices. I'm sure it's an issue
