Grids, Label Icons, Collapsible Menus

 Code On Time release 8.9.16.0 introduces the significant enhancements to Touch UI.

Vertical grid lines are now displayed in the grid view style be default. Developers can selectively hide the vertical lines in the grids and the horizontal lines in both forms and grids.


Label icons are now supported. Tag the data field with the label-icon- tag and include the icon name in it. The icon will be displayed next to the field value instead of the text label. For example, the tag label-icon-work-outline will assign the material icon work_outline to the Title data field in the screenshot.


The vertical navigation menu rendered in the sidebar will display the icons assigned to the page. The vertical rendering of the navigation menu in the sidebar and sliding panels feature the collapse/expand buttons next to the menu items with the children. Only the node of the current page is expanded by default to conserve the vertical space. 


The app toolbar displays the text of the left most "icon" button if there is no button bar in the form. This provides a mode of presentation on small form factor found in modern mobile operating systems.


Command New Row is now implemented. It will activate the inline editing mode and scroll the view to the very bottom while placing the input focus on the "new row" template marked with the "plus" icon.


The 3rd party icon web fonts can be now configured in the app.

Adaptive Wrapping, Virtual Keyboard, Input Focus, Dark Theme Detection

Code On Time release 8.9.15.0 introduces huge performance improvements in the generated apps. Several issues were resolved to deliver a butter-smooth performance across all operating systems and browsers. The major features, including Adaptive Wrapping, Virtual Keyboards, Input Focus Highlighting, and  automatic Light/Dark Theme Detection are bringing your apps to the new level of user interface excellence. Learn about the new features and scroll down to see the full list of the bug fixes below.

We are also pleased to announce to our loyal fans and new friends that the new customer portal based on Content Hub Add-on will go live soon. It will provide a new place to get help and discuss the product with the community. Stay tuned!

Adaptive Wrapping

A subtle but very significant change comes to the apps running on the small screens. For years, the client framework has used a simple rule to determine the layout of the forms. If the screen size is smaller than the typical tablet, then the field values are wrapped under the label. The updated framework takes another approach. It will render the labels and their field side-by-side. Then it will measure the height of each element. If more than 20% of the elements are exceeding the height of a single line text, then the field values are wrapped under the values. Side-by-side labels and values take significantly less vertical space and present much better on the phones. 


 

There is no guesswork or any effort on your part, since the framework will wrap the longer labels and values automatically when creating a layout for a small screen. The wrapping is now data-driven and we hope you like it! If not, then disable the adaptive wrapping in ~/touch-settings.json by setting ui.form.adaptiveWrapping to false. Note that the adaptive does not apply to custom layouts unless you set up the data-wrap=”adaptive” attribute on the form container.

Virtual Keyboards

Consistent virtual keyboards are automatically displayed by the framework for numeric values and telephone numbers on touchscreens running any operating system. The numeric virtual keyboard does not rely on the native “number” input of the operating system and retains the formatting including the currency. Optional auto-formatting injects the decimal point in the value. The virtual keyboard floats on the tablets and sliders up on the small touchscreen.

 
Build your own custom keyboards to speed up data entry in the apps created with Code On Time.

 

Input Focus Highlighting

The “underline” input focus is now standard in Touch UI. 




Light/Dark Theme Detection

Blending with the preferred theme of the operating system of the device seems to be a good idea. This is especially important if the operating system is changing the theme colors based on the time of the day. Touch UI detects the preferred colors of the device and selects the Light or Dark theme automatically while preserving the selected color accent or custom brand accent.

Features & Bug Fixes

The release has introduced the following features and bug fixes:

  • (Touch UI) Focus on the field in the tab or invisible wizard page will correctly activate that tab/page. This has been broken in the previous releases.
  • (Touch UI) Top-level items of the navigation menu are not underlined when hovered with a mouse pointer if the external URL of the page is set to "about:blank" without quotes.
  • (Touch UI) Fixed the bug preventing the display of page menu on the placeholder pages with the children.
  • (Touch UI) Main menu page links will have have their text underlined when hovered with the mouse pointer if there is at least one top-level navigation option with the page link.
  • (Model Builder) Dragging of the model field name text will not cause an exception. 
  • (Touch UI) iPad OS v13 are treated as iOS devices even though they are being reported as iMac platform.
  • (Server Framework) Bootstrap script is linked to the app pages with the bootstrap content only if server.bootstrap.js is set to true in ~/touch-settings.json. This improves performance of the static bootstrap pages.
  • (Server Framework) Controllers based on custom commands with the generated fields/command/actions will not raise an SQL exception when reading data if DataView fields are included in the controller's view.
  • (Universal Input) Touch devices will activate the modal calendar input without triggering the OS keyboard appearance.
  • (Calendar Input) Calendar appears wider for a more conformable input on devices wide than xs.
  • (Framework) Stylesheet generator will monitor changes to ~/touch-settings.json to detect when ui.theme.icons property is changed.
  • (Touch UI) User-driven persistent "fullscreen" mode will restore the "fullscreen" state of the view if it was previously activated by the end user.
  • (Touch UI) Promo button responds to touch events.
  • (Touch UI) Duplicate match details in the lookup now correctly display the details of the first match. Previously the match details were injected in the second item instead while the first match was displayed without the details.

  • (Rich Text) Control toolbar shows up above the lookup chevron icon.
  • (Universal Input) List of items, checkboxes, and radio buttons do not respond to touch if the list is scrolled.

  • (Touch UI) A single previous "revealed" inactive page  stops being visible in reverse navigation only. Previously all "revealed" pages would become invisible.
  • (Keyboard) Event keyboardclosed.app is triggered when the virtual keyboard has been detached.
  • (Touch UI) Empty map input placeholder is not collapsed and is filled with a single non-breakable space.
  • (Universal Input) Right-clicking of the input placeholder will cause it to disappear and make the input focused before the system context menu of the browser is displayed.
  • (Touch UI) Adaptive wrapping in the containers with xs (extra small)  width is enabled by default. The framework will perform a runtime evaluation of the height of the inputs in the form containers. The wrapping of value below the label is performed if less than 20% of them are taller than the normal height. This provides more compact screen presentation on phone-size devices. The feature can be disabled with ui.form.adapativeWrapping in touch-settings.json.
  • (Touch UI) Unified the paddings in the sticky header and view instructions.
  • (Kiosk UI) Reading Pane and Sidebar features are disabled on the app pages with the UI automation and Kiosk UI enabled.
  • (Touch UI) Fixed dark theme colors for the map context card.

Calendar and Reading Pane

Code On Time release 8.9.14.0 delivers the built-in Reading Pane and enhanced Calendar view style with the support for drag & drop of events on touch-enabled devices. 

Reading Pane enhances the productivity of the end users and requires zero programming. Users can interactively enable the reading pane in the view selector. Develops can enable the reading pane on the specific pages by default. Touch UI will ignore the developer settings on the smaller screen and provide the traditional full screen or modal popup style of presentation for the selected records.



Dragging of calendar events in the master pane will sync the date in the form presented in the detail pane. All-new software breakpoints adjust the calendar fonts and presentation in response to the changes of the screen size. The color map of the Agenda mode is now presented on the sidebar. Developers have an option to implement a handler for getcolormap.calendar.app event to provide a custom color map.

This new version of Touch UI displays the drop down menus of the navigation system by aligning them with the corresponding parent menu item. Buttons and drop downs in the toolbars are now perfectly aligned. The new "modern" vertical scrollbars auto-expand when the user is hovering over the bar.
