How can I load Google Data Studio into Presenter Mode? - url

I am creating a Google Data Studio dashboard that is supposed to be on a constant display on a screen in my office. The dashboard runs on a Raspberry Pi which currently boots into fullscreen Chromium with the dashboard as starting page and refreshes the page every 60 minutes. Unfortunately the URL only opens the dashboard with the control tab on the top. Is there any way to include a parameter in the URL that automatically opens the "Present" mode such that there are no controls on top and with the automatic sheet change every 60 seconds?

Use a click automation tool like "Pullover's Macro Creator" to automate the presentation mode button click.

Having trouble loading web view content properly on mobile - iOS

I am working on an iOS app where i am using a Web View to pull from this page.
After doing some researching, i found that the calendar is a plug-in called The Events Manager. On mobile, it does not load properly and shows it as a list instead of the calendar view. However, navigating to the next or previous month shows that the calendar snaps into its calendar view.
Anyone have any tips on how to approach this?
This is a bug in the date control plugin as it doesn't support mobile, and not a bug from your app and the web view at all.
There is nothing you can do from your side (except forcing the page to load as a computer page and not mobile).
Hope this helps!

Reveal.js and presenter view

I’m in the progress of evaluation reveal.js for my future presentations. Currently I do not have a beamer at hand to test the following. I'm running the presentations locally on Mac OS X 10.2.2.
Hitting S opens a new browser tab consisting of the current slide, the upcoming slide, speaker notes, and timing.
Does the audience still only see the current slide?
As you say, it will be 2 different browser windows. The idea would be not to mirror your screen, but rather have different content on the projector and your screen. Then you put the window with the slide on the projector (possibly full screen), and the window with the speaker view on your local screen, just like i.e. keynote would do it. The speaker notes feature is described in https://revealjs.com/speaker-view/
Note that in order to use this feature, you need to be serving your slides from a node.js server (instead of just opening index.html as a file in your browser), as described in https://revealjs.com/installation/#full-setup

iOS: Run code only after it's been added to the home screen

I'd like know if there's away to run a bit of code only after it's been installed to the home screen on iOS. This is for internal use only so I don't need it to work on other platforms. Just iOS.
Basically, I want to add a few custom icons to iOS devices that do specific things. One will open a PDF and that's the one I'm having a hard time working with.
So, here's the flow...
User goes to URL on their iOS based device, there is nothing to see here, but then they add the URL to their home screen. Once they click on the home screen icon, the page opens and redirects to the a PDF that lives online. The pdf can live online since they will always have wifi.
Any suggestions?

Cascade Multiple windows using Jquery Window plugin

I am using Jquery Window plugin v5.03 for my web application. I have to open the multiple windows on screen. But when I call the function to create a window they all open up in the center of the screen and overlap on one another such that previously opened screens are not visible.
I want the windows to open in such a way that at least the title bar and the cross icon is visible on top of the previously opened window. So that the user can know that another window is opened and previous windows are cascaded at the back and are slightly visible.
Please help.

Web iPad app to be downloaded / short cut added to home screen from page - is that possible?

I am developing a web iPad app using Sencha Touch framework.
As it is a JS and Html5 framework It allows me to use cashing and work offline.
If I use the "+" button on iPad's Safari I can ad the icon/ shortcut to the home screen and make it behave as a native app (work without safari's address bar).
I was wandering would it be possible to create a button on the web page that would have the same functionality as the "+" button - so it allows users to add a web app shortcut to their ipad's home screens directly from the web page.
Is it possible? Can JS deal with it using apple's API?
Sorry, but this isn't possible. (JavaScript has no access to any special Apple API's - merely some additional events for touch handlers, etc.)
If it was, you can imagine that it would be trivial for any web site to automate this process (fake the user pressing the in-page "add" button) and hence add itself to the user's home screen without their permission.
