HS/FS Visu, Gira 1024V

[Warichet]

Hi,

I'm redoing my Visu from scratch.
This time in Gira 1024V
So, I've defined a black background in 1024x768.
On top of that, I try to put a picture of 1020x98, but the Experte (2.5)doesn't like it. It looks like the maximum allowed size for the width is 994 ?!? Is that correct ?

I guess I'm doing something wrong ?

Hav a look at the Experte under Projekt/Oberfläche/ Designs is there under the VollbildVisu "JA" ? If not change this. Its the third Button from top on the right side.

Bingo !
What would I do without you ?
Just

Thank you

Hi,

I'm still trying to redo my Visu from Gira 1024 to Gira 1024V

I thought I could cut&paste each page between the 2 design, but it doesn't work.

What would be the best way to copy my Visu from one design to another ?

I've read some posts about this topic where it was about copying directories from one place to another, but I'm unsure.

Any recommendation, please ?

PS: anyone has an idea what's the purpose of this Gira1024 resolution ? I guess everybody uses Gira1024V ?

The best thing - imho - is not to import a second design. That' s what I did:

I took a 1024V client.hsc and copied it to my 1024 directory. I renamed line to gira1024. I copied all files from the 1024v design folder to my 1024 design folder.

- Restart of my project
- adjusting of existing visu pages: the are bigger than they were before, so i had to relocate my object

the easiest way, quite fast and easy!

I recommended MANY TIMES to rename the 1024 design to GIRA1000 (1000x680). Another solution would be to describe this design in the description aread so that everybody sees the difference. Bat Gira was not willing to do so.

The 1024 design was for browser solutions with a lot of overhead from navigation bars and status lines.

Hi Matthias,

Thank you for this tip, looks great
I'm not sure I understand everything, so I ask again, sorry to be a pain

I took a 1024V client.hsc and copied it to my 1024 directory. I renamed line to gira1024.

C:\Program Files\GIRA\HS+FS\exp250\DE\designs\GIRA1024V\clien t.hsc
Do you mean line #4, pre-fixed with a 1 ?

!HSCLIENT

0|1.2
1|GIRA1024V|GIRA1024 Vollbild|999|1|1|999|999|1
2|1|1|1

If I'm not asking too much, can you tell me how to write the line , please.
This seems to be the key of the migration

I copied all files from the 1024v design folder to my 1024 design folder.

It looks like this folder contains only the original HS icons.
I'm not using those icons. I've created my own set from scratch. So I guess I don't need this step ?

My home-made icons are part of the project, I guess I don't need to touch them ? (unless a bit resizing). As an aside question: when I transfer my project to the HS, do I transfer "all" icons, or just those that are used in the project ?
In my particular case, does it make sense to delete the original HS unused icons from the Experte ?

I recommended MANY TIMES to rename the 1024 design to GIRA1000 (1000x680). Another solution would be to describe this design in the description aread so that everybody sees the difference.

When I first started developping my Visu, I didn't understand this difference, and made the wrong decision. The beginner has been caught . Let's fix it

[MatthiasS]

I was caught, too - you were not alone

Yes, line 4

Change

1|GIRA1024V|GIRA1024 Vollbild|999|1|1|999|999|1

to

1|GIRA1024|GIRA1024 Vollbild|999|1|1|999|999|1

You have to copy the design set 1024V to 1024, because otherwise the masks for diagram, uZSU, value entry form and so on will have the wrong size.

Transfer is using only icons that are used. deleting makes no sense.

[Warichet]

Mmm, no go yet, still the black border

I made the correction to the line, duly copied the file in the 1024 directory (not the 1024V)
I rebooted the HS, restarted the Experte, transferred the complete project, I checked to make sure that the background is a 1024x768 picture. I've hit the F11 key.

I forgot something ?
Should it work for the HsClient as well as for the browser ?

Thank you, I forgot the UZSU

PS:
the line reading

3|1004|600|1024|768

should not be changed ?

[MatthiasS]

Did you copy the files to your project directory?

I will send you my modded client.hsc tonight

[Warichet]

Did you copy the files to your project directory?

Nö
I noticed it works much better when modifying the right file
As you mentionned, I've to resize some pictures and put some text back in place, but it's a huge time saver.

There is still a small status bar at the bottom (IE8), if I remember well, there is a way to avoid it by specifying a parameter, but forgot it.


Thanks a lot

@MatthiasS

After experimenting a bit with the new layout, I found it not ideal.
I've several photos which are streched vertically (higher than normal).
For a moment, I though about compresssing them vertically aforehand, in such a way that when imported into the Experte and stretched, they will look right again. Mmm, not ideal.

You said

the easiest way, quite fast and easy!

I wonder if there are other ways to do the migration, obviously less fast and easy, but maybe better than re-doing everything from scratch.

Cut & paste between the 2 designs doesn't work, but is the Gobale Bibliothek a viable alternative ? It looks like it's not possible to export/import entire Visu folders nor pages, just the content objects. Is that correct ?

Thank you for your comments and suggestions.

Hi,

I finally decided not to convert the Visu but re-do it from scratch in 1024V. I've largely underestimated the work as the Visu has grown along the years to many pages....
Along the way, I stumbled on some problems and realized that I'm still a HS beginner
Here is my home page, the photo has the correct proportions.

Thanks to all who helped.

[MatthiasS]

Looks great! You're a master, not a beginner! That R4 is really beautiful, my first car
