V7 Mobile - Save screen real estate with great features

BenHayat

When building grids (query or reference list) be sure to do 4 things to save you lots of valuable screen real estate.

1) Check option for Aware to show grid caption on Application topbar.
2) Have your grid operations buttons to merge with Application menu.
3) Have your grid to stretch to bottom.
4) Use row expansion to avoid switching screen.

The V7 Mobile has become very powerful to stay shoulder to shoulder with his desktop brother. They're the same height now. 😃

Thanks for the tips, Ben. Why is #3 important?

When using row expansion, (I should have said "best" and not "Important"), it's best to have the parent query's PageBar at the bottom and the child's pagebar at the normal place so user doesn't get confuse.
