Creating scene views

In visual dashboards you can create scene views. Use them to arrange and modify scene objects to adjust the view of the scene to different screen resolutions.

1. Open a scene for which you want to create a scene view on the Design tab.
   The default view is displayed on the Default View tab.
2. In the lower right corner of the Design tab, click to open the Create Scene View wizard.
3. From the Category list, select the type of the screen, and from the Templates list, select the screen resolution for that you want to create a scene view. You can select the preset resolution and go to step 10. To create a custom template, go to step 4.
   Tip: To display a scene correctly on different mobile devices, you do not need to create scene views for all possible screen resolutions. You can select one template, for example, iPhone 5, 5C, 5S from the Phone category and create the landscape and portrait scene views for it. At runtime, the appropriate scene view is selected and scaled to screen resolutions of different mobile devices. To enable scene views scaling, ensure that the ScaleToWindow scene property is set to true.
4. To add a specific scene view template, select Custom from the Category list and click Add custom scene view template.
5. Enter the template description in the View description field.
6. In the Width and Height fields, specify the width and height in pixels for your template.
7. Click OK to add it to the Templates list.
8. If you want to remove a custom scene view, select it and click Delete custom scene view template.
9. Select the custom view that you created from the Templates list.
10. Click Finish to close the Create Scene View wizard and open the scene view tab. The scene view tab displays a canvas with a frame that defines the screen area.
11. On the scene view tab, modify the content of the scene to adjust it to the defined screen area. You can modify scenes in the following way:
    • Display or hide the scene objects for the view. To do this, select or clear the corresponding check boxes in the Visibility view.
    • Rearrange the position of the scene objects.
    • Modify scene objects properties.
    All modified properties are marked in bold.
12. When you completed creating the scene view, save it with your visual project.
