USER INTERFACE

INTRODUCTION

The end user can choose between two different user interfaces (Classic and Map). EVE Manager always provides the Classic arrangement as the default interface for each new user of the project. However, it is possible to easily edit this setting by getting access to the specific user management panel and changing the “User interface style”. Doing so, the arrangement of the user interface tab adapts itself depending on the selected user and its specific settings.

If the customer requires the creation of both interfaces, you will need to create two separate users and set a different style for each one of them. (Please refer to “Multiuser management” guide).

Interface creation

Now let’s see how to create the Classic user interface and a specific Map user interface:

– Classic interface, for a quick interface creation suitable for mobile devices;

– Map interface, where no choice is left to chance, 100% customization.

OVERVIEW

Once defined the user interface style that will be used by the end-user, proceed with the selection of the specific selected user. Both “Classic Interface” and “Map interface” tabs are arranged into two different areas:

1. Icons / My components area (right area): this area is subdivided into 2 different tabs:

• Icons tab contains all EVE icons that are available to you for your interface customizations.

• My components tab contains all the components of your project (please refer to “Components library” guide).

2. Interface area (left area): this area on left is where you will arrange the user interface.

It changes depending on the style you have chosen.

NEW EVE MANAGER USER INTERFACES

INTRODUCTION

From EVE Manager 5.9.7.0 there has been a huge update user interface-wise, that allows much more customization on the programming level. This new User interface creation style make components’ placing and custominzing faster.

Icon selection for menus

Unlike the previous User interface menu icons picking method, where you were asked to drag and drop the icon/component from the Icon menu on the right side of the editor, in the new user interface editor the icon picking can be carried out directly from the user interface menu area it self by double clicking on top of the object you want ot add.

Components’ interface placement

In order to place the components in the User interface area, you can now just double click on the desired component to place it inside the user interface area without drag and dropping it from “My components” on the right side of the screen.

Note: The component placement needs at least one main menu placed inside the user interface editor.
