Thank you for your feedback!

In previous Comflow versions, the navigator message image always started the My Worklist task. Now, there are a number of new properties on the sitedef tag which makes it possible to configure any task, only one however, to start when clicking the message image, which is configurable as well depending on choice of quickstart.constant.id.

The sitedef xml should look like this. The first two Navigation tags are just examples:

<Navigations id="desktop">
	<Navigation name="MyFunctions.navtree"/>
	<Navigation name="MySettings.navtree"/>
	<Navigation name="Core.navtree"/>
	<Properties>
		<Property name="quickstart.constant.metadata.id" value="CACORE"/>
		<Property name="quickstart.constant.id" value="navigator.worklist"/>
		<Property name="quickstart.task" value="AsynchWorkflow/MyWorkListsV4"/>
		<Property name="quickstart.initial.tab" value="MyWorkListsV443"/>
		<Property name="quickstart.message.badge" value="true"/>
	</Properties>
</Navigations>

Properties

Name	Description
