screen size 720X1280
« on: August 12, 2013, 06:59:14 am »
Hello All,

Version 3.0.17 release note says:

"Portrait view improved for very small screens."

Where can I set the Screen Size?

I want to make the screen size 720X1280 for my handheld device.

Thank you in advance.

You set the screen size in the RDP client on you handheld device.
SambaPOS adjusts to that.

Hi John,
Thank you very much for your quick response. I am using PocketCloud free version. All available screen sizes are in Landscape mode. What RDP software do you suggest for Android? If I buy the commercial PocketCloud, does it have the portrait screen resolution that I need?

In the Portrait Mode, does the Order screen occupy the full horizontal screen  and the menu buttons are below the Order Screen? I find it in Landscape mode, it is very hard to read the products (with long names) inside the Order Screen, because the menu buttons are on the right of the Order Screen.

I don't use Android, only iOS. The full version of Pocket Cloud allows a wide range of resolutions in both landscape & portrait. I ended up buying Pocket Cloud as the resolutions in the free version were too limiting.

Attached are some screen shots.

Thank you for the Screen Shot, John. Wow, you have an interesting menu. How do you create "Change Staff" button?

They are screen shots of a system I'm getting ready for a Motor Cycle shop.

The 'Change Staff' is actually an Entity Type called Staff so we can track who sold what. We could do this via user logins, but we tend to have a few sales happening at once, and with only one POS terminal I needed a simple way to 'Hold' tickets so other sales can be processed, and this was they decided way.
