How to create screens for mobile devices in ignition 8.1

While I don't disagree with your sentiment, Nick, let's all not engage any further if we don't have anything constructive to say. Every post just revives this thread to the top, waiting for another hapless victim to come in and try to earnestly help the OP.

What container type did you use for the desktop version? I assume it was a coordinate View?

Building for mobile is the same as building for desktop, you just have less space. Since you're using a Flex View which is ideal for mobile, I'm not sure what issues you're having? That massive table will obviously need to be reworked for mobile, and for that, as mentioned many times before, should make use of a Breakpoint View which shows one View for Mobile, one for Desktop

I don't understand what you mean.

You can simulate displaying Perspective (or any webpage) on a mobile device with a chromium browser's (Chrome, Edge, etc.) dev tools (Ctrl+Shit+I in a browser, then click

in the top left of the dev tools window. Then you can set the screen size:

Pretend I'm not omniscient (know everything). What specifically does "not working" mean?

For that massive table, it's obvious that this won't fit on a mobile device unless the font size is 1px high. You will need to redesign the screen for mobile. How you choose to do that is up to you. Think about what the operator cares about, maybe you want a view to show only the things running poorly, e.g. red. Then you can have other views to show all the rest of the statuses, maybe all of the statuses per timeslot with the ability to click to select each timeslot :man_shrugging:

Table/row of views, same thing, different implementation

yes

Have you read any of my (and others') comments about how to design it?? We're not here to hold your hand through designing your screens for you. We can offer advice which we have already provided, but you are supposedly the engineer who was contracted to do the work, not us

yes i have seen

Ya i understood but just i am asking don't take me wrong

You asked this question a month ago, so have you not worked on this at all between then and now?

Consider it a smaller screen. That's it. You can't fit a lot onto a smaller screen, you have to redesign your displays. I don't understand what you don't understand about that.

Actually I have some personal issue so that's why I didn't worked on it

You should probably hire someone/integrator to do this work if you're not going to learn the product.

Ok thank you for your response

Didn't want to say it, but fully agree

Post a screen shot of what is not working, and maybe the treeview of your components in the views
