Hello guys,
I created a page in EP for stock count. It took quite some time to learn how to use EP controls properly, let alone SharePoint specific stuff.
So the page looks good a bigger screen, but it mostly will be used on 7" tablet. So, I adjusted some CSS properties to make it more user friendly on mobile devices, however, I still have some questions:
- Why I can’t seem to find any information on Mobile Page development for EP? Where/how would I create a mobile page in EP? I understand that I can develop completely separate ASP web app, but I’m my question is about mobile pages within EP.
- If there’s no option of mobile page in EP, then what would you suggest to hide left pane, action pane and perhaps top menu for that particular EP page? That would help me to save space on the screen.
Thank you!
Oh, just found out that removing left pane is as easy as deleting web part 
I do almost no EP development, so I’m not the right person for this discussion. Nevertheless are you aware of that SharePoint already includes a mobile view? For example, look at Configure SharePoint Server 2010 for Mobile Device Access.
By the way, you might want not to invest too much into EP, because it won’t exist anymore in the next version of AX (the whole client, including all functionality, will be a web application, so there won’t be any reason for EP).
Thank you, Martin.
The link you shared seems to be quite useful, although after a skim-read through it and keeping in mind your words about EP future, I think the current page without left pane will be good enough to use.
Just a thought - the companies currently using AX 2009-2012 are probably not very likely to upgrade any time soon, so after new AX web version will be released, they may want to start using EP even more And the second thought is - to the best of your knowledge - will my current skills with EP be of any use with new AX version? Say, will they keep same web controls or so?
The development model will look similar to the development of the current client - existing MorphX form will be even upgradable to the solution that will render them to HTML. You will be, as far as I know, able to create new controls (with HTML + JS), but I do not believe that they will be based on SharePoint.
Nevertheless even if there won’t be EP anymore, it doesn’t mean that people won’t wont to use SharePoint (Online) and integrate it with AX in some way.
