Relative size of the dashboard in jasper server - No scroll down or No scroll side of dashboards in tablets/laptop browsers


Relative size of the dashboard in jasper server - No scroll down or No scroll side of dashboards in tablets/laptop browsers.

IMP NOTE: Update : Ther is a bug in 5.5 pro with Proportional size and
 with viewAsDashboardFrame=true parameter
(Tested date of mine : 20th March 2014)

As of my R&D and support from jasper guys, came

1. Generally people do not see their dashboards by scrolling down or scrolling side in the browsers when they use laps or tablets.
2. Tabs/laptops have their own window sizes for browsers.
3. You relatively adjust the size of the dashboard at the time designing itself so that you can avoid scrolling side or scrolling down in the browsers installed in tablest/laptops.
4. There are basically two sizes we can set for dashboards in the jasper server
They are :
i) Fixed Size
ii) Proportional size.

5) You can find these options while designing “a new dashboard” or a dashboard in “Open in Designer mode”
Fixed size values are : Find the below image

Click on Options -> Guide 
Blue dot indicates the selected size for your dashboard. 

6) You need to select the Proportional option b'z you are going to see the dashboard in tablets/laptops ... where you NO need to scroll to see the full view of the dashboard.
The frames will render according to the browser size.
