tabs not showing in mobile
« on: July 08, 2013, 07:49:48 AM »
NT 7.11

I have a form with the style set to Tab. Works fine in regular version but none of the tabs - other than the first tab - display in the mobile version. Each tab is set "include in mobile. What can I do to fix this?

Thanks,

Chuck

Hi Chuck: Don't know if this is an option, but you could choose Rounded as the format and it will work on mobile.  I ended up doing that when Accordian didn't work correctly on mobile.  Easy fix.

Best.

You beat me to it Jim.  Yep, set to "Rounded" and mobile will work.

Now that this topic has come up, a potential feature request could be to make that form style conditional.  Desktop = Tab  Mobile = Rounded or whatever.  Hmmmm...

Bruce might fly over here and kick my arse if I mention a feature request right now.   ;D

Thanks guys but rounded tabs are vertically placed - I am looking for tabs across the top.

hi chuck,

The mobile framework doesn't have a widget to do tabs along the top. It should change automatically to use the "wizard" form type though.

One of the reasons I'm thinking of pursuing a "desktop on mobile" approach though is to get over these sorts of inconsistencies.

cheers
