Enterprise Client Community

I've read this:
http://www.captaincasademo.com/forum/posts/list/998.page

But we're coming back to that point. We launch the Client with a standardized scaling setting. Some users of our client would like for the CC Client to remember their personal scaling setting.

So we would need a way to save the current scaling setting for the next starts of the application.

Some users also asked for a more comfortable way to change the scaling.
Currently the user would need to click on the "settings wrench", click the scaling settings textfield, type in a new number and click okay.
4 user actions to change that on every start of the application might be a bit much (since they can't save their personal, optimal scaling setting). Would an optional scaling shortcut setting be possible in the client? Screenshot attached how it could look (missing proper labels right now).

Hi,

you may set the scaling (and other client attributes) using the component CLIENTCONFIG, here attribute SCALE. The value you define is passed both in the size- and the font-scaling.

So you can decide on scaling from the server side, e.g. after user logon.

Worked great, thanks a lot!

Is there a way to remember the settings on client side, like having a cookie or a similar approach?
Currently we do not have "user preferences" on server side.

...no, there isn't... (up to now)

Hi,

is it possible to built this saving on the client side? We need this feature for one project.

Hi,
we added this feature to 20140804 - the current scale is transferred as http-header-parameter "eclnt-scale". Please check the changelog for more information.

Hi Björn,

thank you very much.

Hello Björn,

i just checked headers after updating to current version, but it seems that orientation header is misused for eclnt-scale.
I haven't found any eclnt-scale http-header, but orientation changes when i change scale.

kind regards,
Michael

Hi,
you are right... the "eclnt-scale" is not written, but "eclnt-orientation" contains the scale. Sorry!
Fix is part of next update + we provide an interim build, too.
