Thanks Ashfaq Mohammed,

I need to design separate application for mobile. it was not possible for one application both desktop and mobile clients, right.

[ashfaq_haseeb]

Its better to create separate app.

You can even use Desktop app too but you may face some design issues.

Hi,

You can use the function ClientPlatform( ) to determine whether the device accessing your .qvw is mobile or desktop and show/hide sheets designed for each platform.

It is a little clumsy and does require duplicated effort in creating the same sheet for desktop and ipad. If your .qvw is large this is probably not practical.

Thanks Neil,

Can u please explain, how to use clientplatform() function in details.

[ngulliver · Accepted solution]

The QlikView help information for this is not particularly clear.

Basically, using WildMatch(ClientPlatform(),'*mobile*') = 1 in a Show Condition on a sheet would enable the sheet to appear for mobile devices but it would be hidden for a desktop user.

If I recall correctly, using ClientPlatform() on a desktop returns no values whereas on an ipad it returns the value 'ipad.mobile'

Hi, Chennaiah.

Did you get this to work OK ?

If so, can you mark the answer as correct, please, so that other people know this is a correct solution.

Thanks,
