Short Description: Sets the number of choices to show in the type-ahead list per page
Description:
The type-ahead feature in IBM Lotus iNotes was introduced in 8.5 for lite mode only, and was enabled using the Notes.ini settings iNotes_WA_NameTypeahead and iNotes_WA_NameTypeaheadStartTimeout. However, as of 8.5.1, type-ahead is on by default for all modes, and these two settings, which were previously required to enable type-ahead, are obsolete. Although type-ahead is on by default, there are new Notes.ini settings you can use to define the type-ahead feature, including two settings for the ultra-light mode, which uses a subset of names from the type-ahead list.
About the type-ahead feature
The type-ahead feature in Lotus iNotes populates a list of type-ahead names, by using the names of people to whom users have recently sent e-mail. Type-ahead caches, in memory, a list of names that are used most frequently, and then displays those names in a list. This list of type-ahead names then display when a user is completing an address field that expects an e-mail address. The ultra-light mode displays a subset of the cached names.
Obsoleted settings
The Notes.ini settings iNotes_WA_NameTypeahead and iNotes_WA_NameTypeaheadStartTimeout are obsolete as of 8.5.1.
New settings in 8.5.1
You can use these new Notes.ini settings in 8.5.1 to further define type-ahead.
