Touch screen mode off in mashup

cpomeren003 — Wed, 12 Sep 2018 12:06:02 GMT

Hello everyone,

I just installed the September version of Qlik Sense and I would like to use the newly added touch screen mode option inside my mashup.

My expectation was that if I changed it inside my Qlik Sense App like this:

It would also work inside my mashup that uses this app, but unfortunately this doesn't work. Does anyone know what else I should do to make it work inside mashups?

Kind regards,

Casper

Hi cpomeren003‌,

I think we missed this in the documentation; you should be able to do:

/**

* Sets device type, which modifies the UI accordingly.

* The device type is automatically detected if it is not manually set.

* @function

* @param {'auto'|'touch'|'desktop'} deviceType - String describing the device type.

* @example

* qlik.setDeviceType('desktop');

` */

I hope this helps

That worked, I placed it here:

require( ["js/qlik"], function ( qlik ) {

    qlik.setDeviceType('desktop');



     Rest of code

}

Is this the preferred location or it doesn't really matter as long as it's inside the qlik.js?

Thanks for the fast response/help.
