Tersus: <Tablet View>

Date: Dec 17, 2016<Tablet View> contains everything you want to display on the tablet's screen (this is your application, so you would like to model it freely).Typically you would include in <Tablet View> one or several pages:

By default <Tablet View> comes with a single page. To add another page, right click <Tablet View>, select Add Element, and select Page.

You can repeat the above to add more pages. When there are several pages, the view will automatically include a Navigation Bar on the bottom to navigate between the pages. [due to a bug, corrected in version 2.2.7, in version 2.2.6 the Navigation Bar appeared also when there was only a single page.]

<Tablet View> contains a Selected Page data element, which contains the currently selected (and displayed) page. It changes when the user navigates to another page, but can also be used to model the navigation to a specific page (a flow from a page to the view's Selected Page element behaves like clicking the page's button in the Navigation Bar).

Starting with version 2.2.6, a Page can have the data element Exclude from Navigation Bar. If exists and is set to "Yes", the page is not included in the Navigation Bar (and the Navigation Bar appears only when there are at least two non-excluded pages).
