adjusting dashboard to screen resolution
jjangiti
<p>I created a 2 column dashboard and added couple report gadgets to it. The dashboard seems to be working fine for me but cutting off for the user with different screen resolution. Is there a setting to make it appear the same on all screen resolutions. </p>

<p>How are your users accessing the dashboards?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Are they logging into iPortal directly or is the dashboard being displayed through a different application?</p>

<p>They are logging into the iPortal</p>

<p>In order to adjust the resolution dynamically, the first thing that comes to mind is to try and configure the gadgets themselves to dynamically re-size based on the resolution of the screen being used for viewing. I'm going to do a bit of digging but i'm thinking this is probably going to require a bit of scripting.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Alternatively, do your users receive scroll bars on the dashboard when their resolution is below the resolution in which the dashboard was designed?</p>

<p>Hi Jesse, </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thanks for your time. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Yes, I had enabled scroll-bars for the reports on the dashboard. But the problem is that the end user has to scroll the reports to view them. </p>

<p>Alright, let me do a bit of digging to see what options are available to dynamically re-size the dashboard gadgets.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>What is the resolution of the monitors the end users are utilizing versus the resolution you are using for development?</p>

<p>Thanks Jesse. </p>

<p>My dev machine is 1920 x 1080 and the user machine is 1280 x 1024</p>

<p>Looks like this should be feasible using some JSAPI and additional scripting within custom gadgets to pull in the report elements based on bookmarks similar to using a reportlet gadget.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm working on putting together an example and I'll post it here as soon as I get it done.</p>

<p>Thanks so much Jesse</p>

<p>As a quick update, I have been able to create a 2 column dashboard (1 chart gadget and 1 table gadget) that dynamically re-sizes based on the dashboard container size within the browser.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I am working on getting the code cleaned up and packaging everything together into an easily deployable example. I will attach the example relatively soon once I have everything ready to go.</p>

<p>Great. Thanks Jesse.</p>

<p>I have uploaded the dynamic dashboard gadgets example to a devshare here: <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='

<p>Thanks Jesse. I will try that out.</p>
