-If you have an application based on JVx' standard ​Application ​frame, it's very easy to use ProjX. The standard application doesn'​t contain a work-screen ​manager, automatic menu/​toolbar creation and automatic logon. This missing features and much more are part of our ProjX application frame. It's a simple RemoteWorkScreen application (defined by JVx). The JVx' standard Application frame is a RemoteApplication without ​work-screen ​management.
