P4V User Guide (2019.1)

Applets preferences

Your administrator can enable a Helix server server to serve applets that can run in P4V. In order for these applets to run in P4V, you must enable applets in your P4V preferences. For more information about Perforce applets, see the Helix Core Javascript API for Visual Tools Developer Guide or consult your Helix server administrator.

To enable Perforce applets to run in P4V:

  1. Go to Edit > Preferences.
  2. In the Preferences dialog, on the Applets tab, select Allow Perforce applets to run in P4V.
  3. Specify the Helix server from which you are willing to accept Perforce applets:

    • Enter the Helix server name or host:port in the Server field.
    • Click Add.
  4. Click Advanced ​to specify the following settings:

    • Save cookies from applets (Click Remove Cookies to delete all applet-generated cookies)
    • Allow applets to store data locally
    • Manually configure web proxy used by applets for internet access: Enter the web proxy address and port.
  5. Click OK. Then click Apply.
