I built a nice little splash page in DS; my first. I typically work from homeit looked great there. At my actual Desk, it does not fit so well. On a small monitor its horrible. I assume there are settings somewhere I need to set.

What we want to happen is simple. If we consider our Tableau (I know I mentioned the T word) it sizes itself appropriately regardless of IE or Chrome, wide monitor or small or resolution. If it does not fit on your screen you get a single vertical (right side) and horizontal scroll(bottom) bar.

My DS splash page is acting weird. It seems by defauly WF/DS takes another approach. It looks pretty good on a large monitor. When I move to a smaller one it adds vertical and horizontal scroll bars to every chart! It thus fails to convey its message ad looks unprofessional.

What am I doing wrong It there a property to set somewhere

Large Screen Example: Generally looks good, I designed it at 100% on a wide screen monitor:

Small Screen:

Note I get a vertical bar for the screen but NO horizontal bar. Note several charts now have vertical and horizontal bars and key data is hidden. The bottom charts are scrunchednot sure why scroll bars are not on themseems inconsistent. WE UST WANT TO SLIDE THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD LEFT OR RIGHT and UP and DOWNunless it can auto shrink it it to fit the given screen.

Is that does use the responsive feature

[David Beagan]

Built in Designer, which is always responsive and would never have a horizontal bar for the whole display.

I wonder why the individual containers dont size correctly (AUTOFIT=ON) to always avoid the scroll bars.

[robert fuschetto]

Where would I assign the property AUTO FIT = ON

if you are saying there would never be a horizontal scroll, how do you handle dashbaords written for widescreen monitors but also viewable on laptops

[David Beagan]

If you have a narrow window dont the components that were arranged horizontally fold under vertically Try it.

The AUTOFIT=ON is automatic in InfoAssist. I would assume the same for Chart Designer. You can look at the code and see it.

ON GRAPH SET AUTOFIT ON

[David Beagan]

Also I see on your small screen the numbers are actually larger. Is the browser Zoom 100% I can make the text larger in an AUTOFIT=ON chart by browswer zooming to >100%. Not sure what this means, just an observation.

[robert fuschetto]

I am not sure where you are looking for his: ON GRAPH SET AUTOFIT ON

I app studio or design studio.

If I run a similar dashboard wih charts placed on an HTML page in App Studioit works as it should. On the wide screen it fits. Drag it over to my small screen or view on a laptop and I must scroll right using the scroll bar at the bottom of the screen that appears. Perfect.

If I add the same charts to DS page and run itno such luck. DS starts adding scroll bars to charts and scrunching up othersas seen in my snips above.

It feels like I need to alter a setting in DS or its a major deficiencyanother one.

[David Beagan]

Is there actually a Design Studio I dont see that anywhere I know there is a Home page with InfoAssist tools on it, Designer tools on it and other tools. Maybe Design Studio is the collection of Designer tools.

You would see the AUTOFIT in the code for each individual item (report). On the Home page where you see the list of items created, you could right-click on a chart report and choose Edit with text editor.

In 8.2.07 on the Home Page you would first click on Workspaces, then proceed.

It looks like both the chart tools automatically put the AUTOFIT=ON in the charts code.

In 8.206 I am seeing this for content built in Designer Studio

Is there a special permission required to be able to edit in text editor for content built in Designer Studio

It appears that anything built in AppStudio allows us the option to edit in Text Editor.

[David Beagan]

Yes, some roles may not have the edit as text permission. Are you right-clicking on a chart You cant edit the whole Designer page in the text editor.

[robert fuschetto]

All I can say is the AUTO FIT = ON is already in every WF AppStudio graph and reportyet still the scroll bars appear on the reports and charts are auto scrunched

FYI: The upper left were reports in my snip.

Now if we look at a chartDS is scrunching it instead of putting scroll bars:

 

If you skip DS studio altogether and do this in App studio, with an html pageit works fine. The reports/charts open at the size I made them and I simply scroll the entire dashbaord left / right or up/down.

Something is wrong with DS or I am missing something.

Any IBI folk out there care to comment before I open a case

[Manoj Chaurasia]

Robert

I have not done what you are doing so I agree opening a case is your next step.

[robert fuschetto]

Ok Chuck. I fear I am describing it badly though. Anyone who adds charts to a dashboard created in DS would encounter this unless they size the dashboard to a very small monitor.
