  • 1.  Swipe to scroll on lists

    Posted 08-09-2018 00:07
    I'm in the process of designing a DashBoard to run our videoboard for soccer. The computer that will be used has a Planar touch screen monitor hooked up through our KVM.

    One element of my DashBoard is a list of players with associated buttons to take graphics to air. (Tap the player, press the button for whatever graphic you want.)

    There are more players than fit on screen though, and I'm having trouble with scrolling. DashBoard doesn't seem to accept the typical "swipe" gesture that we're all used to on our phones. The scroll bars are also too small to effectively use with a touch screen.

    Is there a way to enable the swipe gesture, or to increase the size of the scroll bars?

    If you add touch="true" to the top of your custom panel, you will be able to grow the scrollbars.
    We are also looking at improving the ability to drag-to-scroll going forward.

    <abs contexttype="opengear" touch="true">
       <abs height="325" left="107" scroll="vertical" style="bdr:etched;bg#dark;" top="57" width="556">
          <label height="175" left="201" name="test" style="txt-align:west" top="254" width="161"/>
          <label height="39" left="24" name="Top" style="txt-align:west" top="17" width="167"/>
       </abs>
    </abs>

    Next question, I've got an integer with a choice constraint and a list widget. How do I get scroll bars to show up? I have more choices than fit in the box.

    You'll need to add scroll="vertical" to the parameter.

    <abs contexttype="opengear" id="_top" style="">
       <meta>
          <params>
             <param access="1" constrainttype="STRING_CHOICE" maxlength="2" name="Str" oid="Str" type="STRING" value="a" widget="list">
                <constraint>a</constraint>
                <constraint>b</constraint>
                <constraint>c</constraint>
                <constraint>d</constraint>
                <constraint>e</constraint>
                <constraint>f</constraint>
                <constraint>g</constraint>
                <constraint>h</constraint>
                <constraint>i</constraint>
                <constraint>j</constraint>
                <constraint>k</constraint>
                <constraint>l</constraint>
                <constraint>m</constraint>
                <constraint>n</constraint>
                <constraint>o</constraint>
                <constraint>p</constraint>
                <constraint>q</constraint>
                <constraint>r</constraint>
                <constraint>s</constraint>
                <constraint>t</constraint>
                <constraint>u</constraint>
                <constraint>v</constraint>
                <constraint>w</constraint>
                <constraint>x</constraint>
                <constraint>y</constraint>
                <constraint>z</constraint>
             </param>
          </params>
       </meta>
       <param height="73" left="22" oid="Str" scroll="vertical" top="23" width="158"/>
    </abs>
