Application Tips / Development
General Recommendations:
-Divide mobile users into groups - based on common tasks.
-Create small application for specific needs, rather than one large application for -Create small application for specific needs, rather than one large application for
all users.
-Give users only what they need. To much functionality on the mobile device can
be time consuming for the end user.
Application Tips / Development
Viewport:
-If users use a range of devices, design the viewport for the smallest resolution
to avoid causing unnecessary scrolling.
-Viewport is only a guideline, applications can be configured outside of the -Viewport is only a guideline, applications can be configured outside of the
viewport – but the controls outside of the viewport are not visible immediately
when the application launches i.e. scrolling is required
-iPhone sizes come preloaded. You can add other sizes through the ‘ViewPort’
domain. Then simply apply that new ViewPort to the application.
-The ‘Is Mobile’ check box in the Application Designer application specifies if an
application is designed for use on a mobile device. When you check this box, the
user interface becomes appropriate for a small, touch-sensitive screen device.
Application Tips / Development
Start Center:
-Keep the start center simple. Just like the Maximo applications itself; Don’t
overcomplicate the start center as loading times can be longer.
-No ‘Go To’ Menu on Mobile browser. Add Favorite applications Portlet to allow -No ‘Go To’ Menu on Mobile browser. Add Favorite applications Portlet to allow
users to jump directly to the necessary application.
-Essentially the same as designing
regular applications with a couple
differences
• ViewPort selection
Designing Applications
• Is Mobile checkbox
-Shows a red outlining box which
indicates the screen size according
to the ViewPort selection
Designing Applications
-Secondary Information required? • Consider using multiple tabs. Quicker access and reduces the amount of
information on the screen at once. Less scrolling is easier for the end user
on a Mobile.
