Screen resolution not working as expected in IE plug-in

punitpopli — Mon, 21 Dec 2015 11:35:03 GMT

Hi All,

I have developed an application with screen resolution 1366x768 and this application is working as expected i.e. without any scroll bars on IE/Chrome

But when i have opened the same application using IE plugin the horizontal and vertical scroll bars are coming in the browser. I have hide the navigation bar in the IE plug-in, but still i am able to see the horizontal scroll bar.

Does anyone had face the similar issue in the past?

Thanks,

Punit

Did you design your dashboard to an exact size of 1366x768? It may be that different clients have a different client area between window borders and after subtracting toolbars and menus. Moreover the horizontal scroll bar may suddenly appear because the vertical scroll bar eats a piece of free space too and possibly makes the dashboard area a bit less than 1366 pixels wide (and vice-versa).

Best,

Peter

Hi pcammaert‌,

The exact resolution which i built was 1362 x 638 considering all the possibilities of scroll bar and different browsers i.e IE and Chrome.

But the scroll bars are coming when i open the application on IE plug-in.

I'm just guessing now (I haven't seen your actual dashboard yet), but 4 pixels seems like a small margin for the width of your dashboard. The height on the other hand has a margin of 130 pixels.

I think this may be the cause of your scroll bars appearing unexpectedly: the dashboard has not enough headroom in one of the two directions. This causes a scroll bar to appear, that will reduce the available space in the other direction even further, causing the second scroll bar to appear.

Try on a larger screen, and determine at what dashboard size exactly the scroll bars start to appear. Adjust your safety margin accordingly.

Best,

Peter

Hi pcammaert‌ ,

The height of 130 pixels is less, as we have to consider the address bar ,tab height and taskbar height as well.

Attached is the sample application for reference.
