Desktop integration
The Smart Client can automatically integrate with the desktop of the client machine. Whether or not this happens depends on both client-side settings in the Java environment as well as server-side settings on the Application Server. See Java WebStart settings #Client side settings through the Java Control Panel for more information on the client-side Java WebStart settings and #Smart Client settings #Servoy Application Server configuration related to Smart Clients for more information on the Application Server settings.
