Plexus Connect - Business Flags

    Business flags make it possible to configure the feature set of Plexus Connect which you want to make available for your users. You have the possibility to turn on and off particular features

    The business flags are available in the ${HOME}/.chemaxon/plexus-suite/featureFlags.properties file in UNIX systems (or in the %USERPROFILE%\chemaxon\plexus-suite\featureFlags.properties file in Windows). Switching on and off features is possible by setting their business flag properties to "true" or "false" , respectively. The changes will take effect following the next log-in to Plexus Connect.

    If a business flag of a feature has been turned off, the menus or toolbar elements belonging to this feature will not appear in the graphical user interface, e.g. the "Charts" button will be missing from the action bar of the application if the "PLEXUS_CHARTS" property is set to false. As a consequence, the users will not be able to create any Charts.
