Open UI IP 2014 is finally here! - First look is here - Is it truly responsive?

As most of you aware, IP 2014 is now available on eDelivery!

I was very eager to see the responsive web design part of it! So went ahead and downloaded and setup my sample. The first look – impressive layout. Though, in my case, it is opening only on firefox and IE11 (haven’t tried other IE versions). In Chrome it keeps spinning. You need to set
EnableFQDN               = FALSE in your cfg for it to work!

Important Update:(From Alex on siebel-essentials) Please be aware that Patchset 1 for Innovation Pack 2014 will be mandatory for production use. Patchset 1 will be made available on My Oracle Support in due time (official GA). In the meantime, you can benefit from using the installers for evaluation and upgrade preparations and of course peruse the new documentation to learn about new features.

See the general navigation below.


MVGs back to how they were in HI!


Editing attachments inline – users are eagerly waiting for it! See it here.

Note: inline editing worked only on Firefox and not on chrome for me.

I am disappointed by the responsiveness. See here,


Above, you can see the list and form applets are pretty static. Only Logo, Menu, toolbar etc are dynamically changing. I was hoping much more as part of IP2014 on this. I was imagining List Applets to reduce in height and users will be able to scroll on list applet with their fingers on smaller devices. I was hoping Form Applets will adjust the layout based on the device size. It’s time for more explorations and custom PRs to make that happen!

More to come, hold on till then!

Cheers,
Shiv
