    Taking screenshots for the app stores

    Google Play and the Apple App Store require a number of screenshots for an app before it is admitted to the store. For iOS, these screenshots must exactly match the specified dimensions. But creating a 2732 x 2048 screenshot on a 1920 x 1080 monitor can be quite a challenge. This posts describes an easy way to create those screenshots using the Chrome DevTools. Step 1 Open the Thinkwise Viewer in debug mode using the included debug.bat file. This will show the Chrome DevTools inside the viewer. Step 2 Click the device toolbar icon at the top to show the Device Toolbar: Step 3 Select the appropriate device from the device toolbar. Optionally change the orientation using the rotate icon. Don’t worry if the image is zoomed or if it’s too large for your display. If the device is not available you can add an emulated or custom device using the Edit option. Step 4 Create a screenshot using the option Capture full size screenshot and select the location where to save the file. Step 5 File a r

    Badges

    For as long as I can remember people have been expressing their wish for this new feature. If they could somehow quickly gauge whether or not they should open a tab page somewhere in their application to see if there’s data in there… wouldn’t that be great? With the increasing adoption of smartphones and mobile apps for businesses this need is becoming more manifest. This is why I’m excited to announce that such a feature is now an integral part of the Software Factory, as of version Pyxis – G9.8. Welcome to Badges! There’s this paradoxical thing about badges to me. They seem like such a small addition, but after I learned to identify them, they suddenly popped up everywhere, like little pixies: New private messages and pull requests on Slack There are two unread emails There’s an update for an installed app on an iPhone Visual Studio 2015 has three Extension and Product Updates If you’re wondering what tab page in your browser loaded an ad which just shattered your eardrums… Apparentl

    Barcode scanning with your camera

    Starting from version 2018.2, the Mobile GUI is equipped with one of the most requested features: barcode scanning. This cool new feature allows you to fill in fields by scanning a barcode or QR code with the camera of your mobile device! How does it work? To enable this feature, set the Control of the field you want to fill to “Barcode scanner (mobile)”. The field can have any datatype, but will be displayed as a text field with a scan button in it. When you click the button, the camera is opened with an overlay indicating the scan area. Once the barcode scanner recognises a barcode or QR code inside the scan area, the encoded number or text will be instantly inserted in the barcode field. Technology The barcode scanner control uses the Phonegap Barcode Scanner plugin: https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugin-barcodescanner The following barcode types are currently supported: External barcode scanners A couple of Thinkwise customers already use external barcode scanners. These scan
