24.27. Offline Settings (Server-side Mobile App Control)
A number of options are available for controlling the behavior of your mobile devices. These are collectively known as offline settings.
These settings are accessed using the options available from the system button on the main LincDoc toolbar.
The Offline Settings dialog box allows you to edit the individual settings.
Important: These settings are client ID-specific.
The following settings are available:
- Enable auto-login. When enabled, this feature allows users to bypass the standard user authentication once they initially access the app. The user's credentials are stored and used for subsequent server access.
- Force user re-authentication. When enabled, you can specify how long, in seconds, a user can use the app before being asked to re-supply their login credentials.
- Warn user before inactivity timeout. When enabled, you can specify how long, in seconds, a user will be warned before being automatically logged out of the app when it is no longer in use. This setting allows you to verify that the app is not always left in an open, non-secure state when not in use.
- Force user re-authentication after app focus lost. If selected, the user is prompted to re-authenticate after leaving the app, but not closing it, and then returning to the app, if the specified number of seconds has elapsed since leaving the app. This switching process is known as "losing focus".
- Show e-mail option on document viewer. If selected, users will not be able to access the email option when viewing a form in the app.
- Allow upload of gallery images. For forms with file upload fields, this setting determines whether the iPad app users can select to browse and attach images from the iPad's local image gallery.
- Delete imported files. When files are imported into the LincDoc app from other iPad apps, you can use this setting to specify how long, in hours, these files are available before they are automatically removed from the LincDoc app.
- Convert combo lists to radio buttons. If selected, combo lists will not be automatically converted to individual check boxes on the iPad.
- Background image. These buttons allow you to customize the image that appears in the background of the app.
- select. Specify and upload a background image to use with the app.
- reset. Returns the background image to its original, default setting.
- Force iPad to update forms from server. Allows you to force any connected iPads to immediately perform a synchronization operation.
