What are viewlets for?

With viewlets, we can produce a graphic illustration of how to operate in MODSIM for example, with window shots, baloons and cursor animation, all in small enough files that can be delivered over the internet.

How do I run a viewlet?

Because the window shots you are going to see are large, at about 640 by 480 pixels, it is a good idea to maximize the browser window before running a viewlet. To maximize your browser window just click on maximize in the upper right corner of this window.

Once the window is maximized just click on the viewlet link, sit back and relax. The viewlet will play itself as soon as it downloads to your PC. Idealy, you should have your screen at 1024 x 768 pixels and high color (16 bit) mode.
