Kiosk View Mode
View Display
It is possible to display just an XTension View as a full screen element in the web remote display. This will remove the menu bar and admin menu and display just the View you have created. To do this you would change the hash portion of the URL to your device to include the view name like this:
http://192.168.0.??:8080/#view:mykioskview
that view will then be displayed.
Custom Page Display
You can also send the device to a specific page by using the has format of “custom:pagename” so load in the browser something like:
http://192.168.0.??/#custom:door%20status
To return to the main page you can send just “#main” as the hash
Unit List Display
To display a unit list use the hash string “#list:listname” like:
http://192.168.0.??/#list:outside%20lights
Remote Control
If creating a Kiosk or other interface via this mechanism there are various ways of displaying the page or view that you wish to. If you’re running on a Mac then an applescript can be used to tell Safari to go to a specific page. If running on a remote raspberry pi, use firefox and the marionette extensions. As of this moment that is not simple but I am planning a plugin to make it easier to do so. Please let me know if this is something you wish and I’ll move it up the priorities list.
