- HCL Nomad web 1.0.20: Kiosk Mode Locks a Domino App into a Single-Purpose Terminal
As of writing (2026-06), the latest HCL Nomad for web browsers / Nomad server on Domino release is 1.0.20. The standout new feature is Kiosk Mode — pin one database to run on startup, disallow closing it, and hide or lock the rest of the UI, turning an existing Domino app into a single-purpose terminal in the browser (reception desk, shop floor, self-service kiosk). 1.0.20 also adds file-export support on Firefox. This piece covers the 1.0.20 highlights and places them in the 1.0.18 to 1.0.20 Enchanted-design-refresh arc.
2026.06.15 - Geolocation on Nomad: NotesGPS, NotesGPSPosition, and NotesGPSCoordinates
Classic LotusScript has no location API — but an app running on HCL Nomad can read the user's latitude and longitude. NotesGPS is Domino's client-side geolocation class for Nomad: start from NotesSession.CreateGPS(), authorise with RequestAccess(), fetch a NotesGPSPosition with GetCurrentPosition(), then read Latitude / Longitude off its NotesGPSCoordinates. This article walks the three-class chain, annotates the official example line by line, and covers the gotchas — error 4508, empty Speed/Heading on the first iOS call, and HighAccuracy failing indoors.
