  • 1.  Open Dashboard in Full screen mode.

    Posted 02/11/21 10:33 AM
    Hi,

    After the dashboard has been developed in R7 is it possible to set the dashboard to open in full screen mode by default.

    This is not possible due to browser restrictions. You might have some luck if you write an electron application that loads the cognos page. (similar to M$ Teams for example)

    Vincent Dsouza – if I understand this correctly, assuming that you have a web portal that has links to Cognos reports, you can:

    -       programmatically open up a web page in full screen mode, you may need to use JavaScript

    -       otherwise, you may want to open up the Dashboard without the top and left nav bar, you can add these additional parameters at the end of the URL "&ui_appbar=false&ui_navbar=false"

    o   For example: http://<host>/ibmcognos/bi/?pathRef=.public_folders<path_to_report>&ui_appbar=false&ui_navbar=false

     

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks Peter and Reinier, the dashboard is run from the Cognos URL,  whenever the dashboard is open, it opens in a condensed default mode and the user has to click on 'Enter Full screen mode'  to  expand and utilize the full screen of the computer. see attached image.

    The ask from the business is can the dashboard by default open in 'Enter Full screen mode' ?
