Question

Thingworx Demo Site Views

Maybe someone can answer me a few quick questions.

Looking at the Thingworx Demo site's views it has what seems to be a responsive grid/window/menu like view with the links to different projects. This is re sizable to whatever shape/form etc view that I can only assume is on a static mashup? I say this because if you make it small enough it will give you a vertical scroll bar but not a horizontal scroll bar so how do you achieve this effect?

Then the other view is a "Carousel" type view that allows you to swipe along to the next one which if you inspect the source it appears to be a widget? Would this be a custom widget that isn't or once was available? I can't see any other way it could have been made without it being a custom made widget?

Scroll bars are usually added automatically as needed within ThingWorx. If the shape of some widget on a mashup should produce a scroll bar and doesn't, then that is likely a bug. I am not sure exactly what you are referencing here, though, so I can't speak with certainty on your issue

Hey Tori,

I'm referencing your own ThingWorx demo site, the horizontal bar never shows due to everything being resized correctly to keep it in the frame whereas the vertical bar will appear then those links are pushed further down the page etc.

So I am confused, what is the issue here? You want to force it to have a horizontal scroll bar?

Actually I've seen that Demo website before, the Demos inside that you can see, they have a responsive left Sidebar, and a Tree widget was put inside as a directory, and in the content part I believe some of them are made from Dashboard, as you can see there are small Gear icons.

But for the screenshots you provided, the menu page for those beautiful Demos that could be resized, I think that's not based on Thingworx entities, it might come from the effect of front-end design like PHP, you're looking at our website, and that might not be a Thingworx product.
