Designing Dashboard for Ipad

Hello
We have a requirement to run the dashboards on ipad. We have SP08 patch level 1 and dashboard client is also on the same level. We also have the updated mobile app.Mobile settings have been successfully configured and we can see all our WebI reports on our mobile devices(iphone,ipad& note). But the dashboards are still not being displayed properly.
when we open the dashboards(Client) with mobile compatibility feature we see that our dashboards have query prompt browser and this is not supported on mobile. Now I have been trying to replace these query prompt browser but since I have limited knowledge in dashboard design I am unable to get on with it.
so I guess I need to replace the query prompt browser with a Bex query but I don't know how exactly. I would appreciate if someone could advise me on what changes I need to make to display my existing dashboard on mobile devices.
or
Do I need to re-design my dashboards from the scratch for ipad?
please refer below the screens of our dashboards on ipad & on desktop?

Thanks in advance to all the members,

Hi Imran,
Dashboard is completely different when you are designing for ipad when you compared with webi. There are so many checklist you need to follow to achieve the dashboard 100%. As a first step i would request you to go through the below link and check whatever you designed is compatible for ipad. Then replace with the other component which supports for the design.
How to Configure and Access Dashboards from IPad
Coming you query prompt selector, i would suggest you to swap with combo box and use the query refresh button. to trigger the query. please revert for more clarifications. Hope this helps bro.

Auto cad maybe too complicated.
Can anyone tell me what good design apps for iPads but as ease of use as the "numbers" ? Thx.

Here is their list of compatible apps and I do not see ibooks on it.

Using Dashboard Version:Dashboard 4.1
I really would appreciate your help.

Hi Prasad,
We dont really have any chart similar to Tree Map.
But if you could help us understand what is the data that you are trying to display then maybe we could think of something.

Xcelsius Dashboards for iPad/Apple

All - I have developed a dashboard that is deployed to upper management at one of my clients. Many of these executives travel extensively and all have company issued iPads. Obviously the swf file doesnt play well with Apple products. Are their any work arounds, service packs or other options I can investigate in order to get this dashboard ipad-ready?

Troy,
Check out MyBI Mobile from Exxova. Our solution allows you to run all of your existing Xcelisus, Crystal and Webi reports with no re-platforming or costly consulting fees. Search "MyBI Mobile" in the Apple app. store and you can download our free version and play with some dashboards we provide. This tool is very powerful and is gaining a lot of ground in the industry due to our ability to support, flash based, Xcelsius dashboards on the IPAD.
P.S. Our solution is meant for enterprise deployments but we can talk about strategic partnership opportunities if we feel your company is a good fit for us.

Screen size/resolution for iPad 3

Hi
I'm designing a portfolio app. At the moment I am previewing it on an iPad 2 in content viewer and all looks OK (text a but fuzzy but I hear thats normal) However I have set the articles and folio builder up in iPad 3 sizings as we will shortly be getting an Ipad 3 and will be showing off our work (we're a design agency) on the new higher res iPad 3. So, is it best practice for me to work to 2048x1536 @ 264 ppi for the iPad 3 versions, then when I've designed and built my app, downsize to 1024 x 768 at 131ppi?
Thanks in advance
Steve Chapman

Hi Bob/Anyone – I found this post whilst doing some research – what are your opinions of it guys?
If my maths are correct then, for the iPad 3, keeping the document at 1024×768 pixels but just doubling the res (72ppi to 144ppi) is exactly the same as doubling the doc size to 2048×1536 but keeping it at 72ppi!!

There seems to be a lot of confusion about the whole retina story amongst print designers.
It is actually quite simple folks.
When you design something for iPad 1 or 2 use a 1024×768 pixels document at 72 ppi.
When designing for the retina ipad make a document 2048×1536 pixels at 72 ppi.
If you don’t believe me I’ll do the math for you: 2048 pixels wide on a 7.75 inch wide display > 2048 / 7.78 = 264. And 264 just happens to be the advertised resolution of the Retina iPad.
If you want to let users zoom in on images without the images becoming pixelated, use higher resolution images.
Use Indesign to layout the documents and create the PDF not Photoshop as mentioned before. Photoshop will produce rasterized text while a PDF from Indesign will offer crisp text at any zoom level.

Dashboard for top Management.

Dear all,
i have to design dashboard for top management.my query is how i can decide that what general information a top management requires to be displayed on dashboardas i have no clear requirements...and am a fresher..i will give points if i got help on the same.

Hi gaurav,
Manager's Dashboard provides near-real-time performance metrics, enabling you to monitor plant operations at a glance. These user-selected metrics let you drill-down into supporting enterprise data to quickly understand manufacturing and operational activities throughout your plant. With access to key analytical data, you can then avoid or resolve problems by quickly taking corrective action.
Some of the features and benefits of dashboards are
Revenue Managementu2014provide metrics on future cash receipts and overall revenue performance
Customer Shipment Performanceu2014display fulfillment information
Manufacturing Performanceu2014get data on your manufacturing operations
Inventory Management Effectivenessu2014provide summary information on inventory turns
Supplier Performanceu2014provide summary and detailed information on supplier performance
Cash and Capital Managementu2014display cash flow data
So depending on these you can decide which content your organization wants, as your manager also what are the things he needs everyday for analysis. Also use the concept of MIS and EIS.
Hope it will help.
Reward Point if helpful.
Thanks,
Raja

Do you know of any free wireframes for iPad app development?

Do you know of any free wireframes that would be used for ipad development? Im looking for an easy and user friendly wireframe to develop an app.

See Wireframe iOS design apps for iPad? .
Or give more details on exactly what you need for your work, etc.

Web design company looking for iPad app to display my portfolio at a trade show

I run a small web development business and have my first trade show coming up. I'll have a booth setup and was hoping to have my iPad out on the table for people to pick up and scroll through my portoflio (ie web designs, logo concepts, etc.). I've seen this app:
Portfolio for iPad
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/portfolio-for-ipad/id384210950?mt=8
which looks great but I was wondering if anyone else had other options. I like the idea that the above app allows you to lock the device so that users can only scroll through the portfolio and need a PIN to do anything else.
I don't have much experience with the iPad as I just got it and I don't do any app development. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any and all help!

Locking the iPad so that a user can't exit an app isn't possible for any developer to implement, since the developer kit doesn't provide that sort of access to the low-level routines in iOS. The only way to lock into a single app is to use a case/frame that covers the Home button (and turn off the gesture support in the settings in iOS 5). A number of companies make kiosk mounts for this purpose.

How do I design my posters on Photoshop touch for ipad, to be A0 and export them to creative cloud at the same size???

How do I design my posters on Photoshop touch for ipad, to be A0 and export them to creative cloud at the same size???
every time I do it it comes out at a fraction of the size and not even an A size...
Please help

A0 is pretty big if you go at a high DPI for printing. It's about 10000 x 14000 pixels at 300 DPI.
PS Touch can handle about 12 Megapixel image imports (which is about 4000 x 3000 pixels). PS Touch, interestingly, can create 4096 x 4096 pixel projects from scratch.
Adding to that, PS Touch always exports at 72 DPI. Take note that this is probably due to tablet hardware. Tablet hardware is "getting there" but it still has a ways to go before it matches its desktop cousin.

Designed for IPad also means for IPad mini?

Hi,
Looking to get a tablet, and considering the IPad mini. But I notice that it has different screen dimensions than regular IPad/Retina. When I browse some of the apps I want to use, they all say "Designed for IPad". Does that include the IPad mini?
Thanks.

Thanks, but just to be 100% sure here, does "they will work" equal "designed for"? What I mean is, I don't want to find black screen edges etc on 50% of the apps just because I got the mini and not the regular IPad. I imagine that would be one of the differences between "they will work" and "designed for"...or am I completely off here?
I know this might be obvious to most ppl, but this is going to be a gift and I want to get the best...:)

Designing for iPad. Horizontal Scroll & Different Page Sizes.

Putting together a pdf for iPad using cs6.
I have content that fits a standard iPad format BUT I also have these very long timelines (170cm x 21 cm). These need to be displayed zoomed in – with the reader swiping right to accessing the remainder of the content (so a horizontal scroll).
Whenever I test it on the iPad it displays the full image (so zoomed out and tiny).
Just to clarify – I have two different page sizes in the same document – standard iPad size and then these annoyingly long ones....
So how do I make sure I view them right on the iPad? I need the zoom/fixed start on the long images.
Sorry a bit of a novice with anything for iPad.
Thanks!

Hi,

How do I animate graphics for ipad, a windows user who might jump ship

Please read this recent post that I put up on the Adobe Flash forums site; only got one reply which wasn't much use to me, maybe you guys can help.
No I'm not on here to moan about Mac not supporting Flash (and yes I know that in theory Apple have done a U turn and are prepared to support it, albeit through gritted teeth). I have a problem though, I have been using Adobe since, well forever really, and am Windows based, plus I've always managed to keep both Mac and Windows users happy as I am largely video and After Effects based. I've dabbled with Flash and Director and some HTML coding so I am not completely naive when it comes to interactive presentations. This time I am a bit stumped though, I have an international client and they have decided as a company to invest in ipads for all their staff, so I am now being asked about interactive presentations including graphics and video content. Well if any other client had asked this of me I would have brushed up on my Flash and probably developed a straight forward presentation (nothing too fancy is required, no back end data base stuff etc, just a few animated buttons, splash screens and video). It is probably not agood idea coming onto an Adobe forum and asking what other program I can use for similar projects on the Mac, but that is my starting point. I know about Keynote, which I perceive a bit like Powerpoint (Micky Mouse comes to mind, I'm asking for trouble saying that I guess), so what exactly is the programe that is used on Macs to do similar tasks as Flash, does it exist? Before I decide to persist with Flash (and I guess that I am going to be nudged in that direction as I am on an Adobe forum) I'd like to know what is its rival on Mac. I have done a bit of research and am looking at Xcode4, Cocoa and it all seems a bit confusing and I certainly don't want to learn, C, C++ or one of it's derivatives, plus ipads use IOS a rather pared down version of the full Mac OS. If I were a Mac graphic designer and I wanted to design an interactive presentation for the ipad (or Mac for that matter) what professional program would I be using? There you go a very simple question from a very long winded explanation of my problem.
Here is the reply I got form one of the other forum users:-
As far as I know, Jobs was putting all his eggs into HTML5, so you probably want to see how he and the rest of the team are coming along with that spec (estimates are between 3 to 10 years for a final spec release). I believe you'll need to learn a number of other things (css, javascript, jQuery, ajax, etc) to make it all work together to mimic what it can of a Flash version.
As far as video goes... http://www.informationweek.com/news/hardware/desktop/225701855?subSect ion=News
(Yeah, you're less likely to get positive/useful feedback in a Flash forum... try a Mac forum, better yet, an iPad forum)
Any help much appreciated

Hi Mitchell,
I'll try to help you answering few questions. I'll be short now because dinner is almost ready.
My background and experience is web/print designer, but I have been researching and studying iPad since the original is out (I got iPad and iPad 2). I work in Windows environment, I actually embrace the iPad situation.
Ok, basically you want to have "interactive presentations including graphics and video content" for client?
The best answer for that at the moment is: HTML5, jQuery/JavaScript, and CSS. I am sure with those 3 can get something like this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wc3fghSJvBM
That's actually an app. Obviously native App has some advantages over WebApp. Take a look at how Google tackle the iPad with its webapp. Lots of great example. Google uses a lot of jQuery in a smart way.
Maybe soon Adobe products will adapt and utilize more HTML5 for iPad. Maybe Flash would eventually go to iPad, who knows.
I actually manage to live "without Flash" and be more efficient with presentation. Less bling and splashy interaction, but still manage to give a "new" experience. I would probably ask the client to wait a bit. Study the available interactive magazines (Wired, GQ, Victoria Secret etc) and websites that utilize only HTML5, jQuery, and CSS to get that "Flash" feel.
There are really awesome Flash websites over the last few years, before iPad came along. We have gone almost "too much" with what Flash can do in term of giving interactive and layers and layers of interactive eye candies UI. Maybe it's time to be more efficient. Save the pixels for what really more important.
Anyhow, try a simple hack: use and experiment Splashtop app or similar app that allow mirroring of PC/Mac into the iPad. This way, you could have Flash on your iPad, as long there is a connected PC/Mac via Wi-Fi.
Try also presentation viewer for iPad, from Prezi.
Remember one thing: It does not have to be the iPad. We know iPad is cool, but if other tables (Android tablets) can actually view Flash and the experience is fine, then go for it. My opinion: Flash is not yet for multi-touch experience.
Tablet revolution is still really young, so, it's time to experiment.

Complaints for iPad 2/Customer Support

Please bear with me, I am new and extremely dissatisfied/frustratedwith Apple’s hardware, software and customer support.
I received my apple iPad 2 the day before yesterday (orderedthrough AAFES). I am abroad working inKuwait with the military. I charged thedevice (of course with the supplied charger and cable), plugged it into mylaptop, which has the most recent iTunes, registered my product and powered iton. After less than a minute of checkingthe device I noticed a dead (not misfired, but dead) pixel. My first reactive step was to reset the ipad,hoping that would help. Reset was successful, but did not correct the dead pixel. I then connected to the net through my wifi router and d/l a couple basecolor photos to see if this would show some reaction from the pixel, the pixeldid not change… it’s dead.
I took the iPad 2 to the nearest distributor in Kuwait. The representative verified that it was adead pixel and notified me that Kuwait doesn’t “officially” support iPad 2 yetand that they have just gained the support for iPad 1 and that I must contactApple in the States.
I went through the motions and attempted to do an RMA through the net… BUT, Apple will not mail a device to an APO (their reasoninghad something to do with signature confirmation not being available at APO…which I know as a fact is bogus because I work for the APO and yes, we sign forALL accountable items… delivery confirmation, insured, certified and registeredmail on the PS Form 3883 and when a customer picks up their parcel, they sign aPS Form 3849, so please Apple, get your information straight!). So because of this dilemma, I had to call thecustomer service center.
Luckily I have VOIP because it’s roughly $1 to $2 a minuteto call the US from Kuwait (no, 800 numbers aren’t toll free for internationalcalls, just in case anyone did not know that). The representative was kind and curious, so no complaint with himpersonally. He asked me to go to a localstore, I filled him in on all the steps I took and asked if I can just ship itto a service center and if they could send me a shipping label (yes, Apple,good customer service departments actually DO pay for a shipping label), he putme on hold to see if he could get approval from senior officer, I mean seniorsupport specialist (I’m guessing it was a “lead” and not a “supervisor”). He told me that was a no go. He asked when I would be in America on leave…this is not an option for me in my position. The ONLY option he could give me was for me to ship my device to a friend/familymember, have them go to a retail store, have them “test” the device, then havemy family member/friend ship it back to me. This is very very very problematic for me for soooo many reasons. First off, it seemed as though, through hisvoice/tone that they would not replace my item with a new item… meaning, theywould repair the BRAND NEW LEMON for me. Second thing is, my only point of contact, my mother, is inFayetteville/Ft. Bragg, North Carolina. The rep told me that the nearest service center is in Raleigh, NorthCarolina. That is about a two hourdrive, or course depending on traffic; meaning my mom, would have to dedicate aminimum of 4 hours driving. Next issueis economics, gas is not cheap, and my mom drives a (constant) 4x4 FordExplorer… $$$. Not Apple’s fault, Iknow. Next thing is, if they arerepairing the device, how long would that take? She would probably have to drop it off and pick it up later on in theweek. That now puts us to 8 hours of traveltime, and pretty much two days out of my mom’s schedule. And the last issue would be, I should now berequired to keep a LEMON. I want a brandnew, fully functional device, THAT is what I paid for.
How can a company which, according to its June earningsreport, has $76.2 billion in cash and marketable securities treat theirconsumers in such a fashion??? (According to the latest statement from the US Treasury, the governmenthas a cash balance of $73.8 billion, as of Wednesday, FYI.) This is total and utter bullsh*t.
I will next rant about my hates about their software; I mustremind you that I’m a newb to iTunes and supporting software (I own a coupleiPod classics and had an iPhone 1, but the software continues to mutate).
The iPad 2 Safari browser will not natively allow one todownload… anything. But for $5 you cango ahead and pay Apple $5 to buy their Safari downloader.
In order to download “FREE” apps from iTunes, you MUST enter your creditinformation… Apple has two work-arounds for this, you can BUY an iTunes prepaidcard… um, guys, please define to me the word, FREE; next (as the rep told me onthe phone) I can register with my credit card, and delete it out later on…hmmmmm I bet it is still saved on the server. Anyone know what just happened to Sony’s network recently? Yeah, I’m wondering about the legality ofthis, but I’m not a lawyer and US e-laws are about 20 years out dated anyways.
As I said earlier, I reset my device, from the device. I tried to do this again, and it would justhang on the black screen with the apple logo and a non-responsive statusbar. So I tried to reset through iTunes. You can’t just reset the device,you are REQUIRED to have an internet connection and download the newestsoftware. This is fine if you’re always plugged in, I might not even complain if I was in the US right now… but torequire that is ridiculous… not to mention, if one were to have their device jailbroken (yup, Apple, you lost in court, so deal with it… not just in America,America took a long time to finally tell you that, MULTIPLE countries sewed you and found your tactics unlawful); this makes it difficult to use you free,non-big-brother approved software.
You cannot natively test your video, audio or microphone quality. Wow, you guys could at leastload an Apple commercial on your device so someone could watch and listen toit. So I have to d/l skype just to testmy microphone (I’m sure there are many other programs, but the fact that I haveto go out of my way just to make sure the device works, is just, wow, non-expletivesjust can’t explain it).
And last, and probably least, they could have put a couple songs, videos, pictures or games on there. Not a big deal, but if this is supposed to be such an awesome device,Apple, show it off, don’t just advertise and trick the end users into believingthat they will have a nifty device right out of the box. Do you other users actually pay the extracouple hundred dollars for your programs like Apple wants?.. or are you alljail breaking and unlocking?
I’m sorry to all you die hard Apple lovers if you areoffended, and I’m sorry if I’m naïve or maybe a little ignorant to the “Appleway of life,” but if Microsoft did this, everyone would flip out. Heck, they got sued for adding extra stuff totheir OS; but, it’s ok for Apple to make their devices so minimalistic that it’shardly better than a word processor with web browsing capability and a couplecameras? I like my Kindle a lot more, it’san ebook, advertised as an ebook, works as an ebook, and they added some cool extras like text to voice and web browsing.
Ok, I’m done for now. Can anyone please give me some information on how I can get this POS replaced with a brand new, in the box, sealed and fully functional (lol, well,as functional as the iPad 2’s come, out of the box)? If not, how can I spread my complaint as farand wide as possible? And with that,does anyone know the buyer’s remorse policy on electronics? (oh, AAFES won’t give one ounce of supportfor Apple products, normally they would give a 15 day, but for Apple, becausethere have been SO MANY issues, they no longer assist, as a matter of fact,when you buy an Apple device from them, you have to sign a paper saying thatyou understand that if the device is defective or inoperable in any way, thatyou will not ask AAFES for help… at least in the local PX’s here.)
PS I appologize for the typoeees, I cut and pasted all this and for some reason it smushed some of the words together.

I’m not quite sure what you’re referencing as“misinformation” or “ridiculous statements,”
I was referring to these:
The iPad 2 Safari browser will not natively allow one todownload… anything.
Not true. It can download PDFs and Images. iOS apps are downloaded through the AppStore. But not allowing you to download just any old files is what keeps iOS free of viruses and malware. It's a security feature.
pay Apple $5 to buy their Safari downloader.
Not true. Apple does not make and charge for any Safari Downloader app.
In order to download “FREE” apps from iTunes, you MUST enter your creditinformation…
Not true, as the link posted above proves.
So I tried to reset through iTunes.
No you didn't. You can't reset the device through iTunes. You can restore it, which means re-installing the OS, which of course requires an internet connection to download it.
if one were to have their device jailbroken (yup, Apple, you lost in court, so deal with it…
Not true. Apple didn't lose anything in court. They never even went to court. It was the Copyright Office.
MULTIPLE countries sued you and found your tactics unlawful
Not true. No countries have sued Apple.
You cannot natively test your video, audio or microphone quality.
Not true. iPad is designed to be synced with iTunes, which is where your music and video is stored. The AppStore has many easily downloadable free apps that use the microphone. Videos and music can both very easily be played in the web browser.
they could have put a couple songs, videos, pictures or games on there.
Why? Your iTunes Library should already have songs and videos in. Pictures are easily obtainable, and so are many free games. People would complain like crazy if Apple put loads of crap nobody asked for on their iPad from new like you get on a Windows PC.
don’t just advertise and trick the end users into believing that they will have a nifty device right out of the box.
The iPad does everything it is advertised as doing right out of the box. But you will need videos, music and games to put on it. Same as a CD player plays CDs out of the box, but you need CDs to play on it. A car will take you on journeys, but you need gas to put in it.
Do you other users actually pay the extra couple hundred dollars for your programs like Apple wants?.
Of course people buy apps for their devices. There are hundreds of thousands of apps available. You expect Apple to provide you with every app ever made for free, pre-installed? Get real! People also buy applications for computers and other electronic devices, like they buy CDs for their CD player, DVDs for their DVD player. Nobody expects the manufacturers to provide them for free.
it’s ok for Apple to make their devices so minimalistic that it’s hardly better than a word processor with web browsing capability and a couple cameras?
If you had read reviews of the iPad and read the product info pages on Apple's website, you would've known EXACTLY what the iPad comes with in terms of hardware and software. It's all there in black and white.
I like my Kindle a lot more, it’s an ebook, advertised as an ebook, works as an ebook
The iPad does everything exactly as advertised - if it didn't, Apple would be in trouble with advertising regulators all over the world. Millions of people like the iPad, but if you prefer the Kindle, why buy an iPad? That makes no sense at all.
I have seen and read dozens upon dozens of reviews on the iPad and iPad 2…
Hmmm... somehow I doubt it. If you had, there is absolutely no way you could've had so much misinformation and misconceptions about what the iPad is, does, and comes with.

I would like to ask why apple does not support Whatsapp for Ipad

Dear All,
As a relatively new apple user, i find it difficult to understand as to why apple doesnt support whatsapp for ipad. I am mostly on the go and carry my ipad for business purpose, and as you know, these days social networking is an intergral part of our lives, i find it perplexing as to why ipad doesnt support whatsapp. Almost all of my collegue's and friend are using this, it becomes increasingly diffcult to multitask between a phone and an ipad.
Could Apple kindly make it available for users. It would be really convinient, especially for people in the age group 50+ who would like to be in touch with their families regularly.
Regards
Bala

Whatsapp is meant for phones, authenticated via the voice carrier link. That's what the developer (nowadays Facebook, who bought the company) decided to do with their app. Hacking that design sounds dangerously against the TOU for discussion in these forums.
You can always search in other message boards outside Apple's regulations for what you want. Regardless, you will need an iPhone to authenticate and activate you Whatsapp account.
