I recently upgraded my home setup from 2.1.0 to 2.5.0 and finally got all 5 of my panels and each one’s buttons working properly on my revised system (new AV amp and soon a new Blueray player).


Now I can no longer get the webconsole screens that look and behave as before on the computer desktop to resize (pinch/un-pinch) as they used to do on my android web browser screens on the 2.1.0 version.


Is there a secret to getting this sort of configuration to behave properly with mobile device screens? Or am I going to have to use the android client app now ? 

I think it may be related to the fact that when I invoke “desktop site” switch in mobile chrome, as was formerly my custom, it now hangs on “loading” forever and never displays the webconsole UI.


Any suggestions or tips?


I am attaching some screen shots here:

I went ahead and installed the openremote client app on my moto e4 plus phone and after a few tweaks to the designer content and putting some scaling factors into the client setup to enlarge x and y dimensions a bit it works pretty well now.  I guess I will give up on the bare webconsole client for now if nobody has any suggestions.

Hi Tim,

would you mind sharing more details on "putting some scaling factors into the client setup to enlarge x and y dimensions"?

Thanks

Excellent thank you! I have been wondering for the last 6 months on how to make the panels designed for iPhone 6s to look correctly on my Android and you just saved me a whole lot of time by not having to design all those panels again for Android 👍


Thanks for sharing
