Kiosk Mode

[AnthonyM]

We are looking to transition our catalogs to PWB v3, but I do not see a Kiosk Mode option. Has this option been renamed or discontinued in v3? We use KioskMode with ShowKioskBar in v2.
If you need more details on what we are looking for or a screenshot, please let me know. Thank you.

Currently PWB version 3 is in a basic form. Kiosk mode is on our list to do and should be available within the next few weeks.

Scott,

Thanks. I look forward to seeing it. One suggestion I would like to make is to include an option to include some kind of status bar or animation to show when a page is loading. Occasionally our catalogs run slow and it would be nice to be able to see of the page is still loading or simply failed to load. Thanks again.

Kiosk mode and the Kiosk Bar are two different things. We include Kiosk Mode, but the Kiosk Bar is going to take a bit of research since we are using the new Toolbars and they do not like to be separated.

Cool, thanks for the update scott

Hi Scott

Did you ever get anywhere with the Kiosk Bar ?

Cheers

We are still working on the kiosk bar. The new toolbar class we incorporated in PWB version 3 does not like to have multiple toolbars and we are trying to work around it.
