Graphical user interface (GUI) and operating instructions

The Graphical User Interface (GUI) automatically adjusts itself to the available display width (this being referred to as a “Responsive Design”).
In this context, 3 different display modes are available:

  1. Mobile Mode (up to 576px)
  2. Tablet Mode (from 577px to 1199px)
  3. Desktop Mode (from 1200px upwards)

For example, Tablet Mode or even Desktop Mode may be displayed on your smartphone, depending on the optical resolution capabilities of the display (portrait or landscape format).

Viewing in smartphone or in mobile mode

Given the large number of manufacturers and display sizes, there is no guarantee that the HTML Help will automatically select the correct view. The menu is sometimes displayed on the left and the actual contents in a very narrow format. This occurs especially when the smartphone or tablet is held upright and the pixel resolution of the display is just above the limits listed above. In this case, we recommend collapsing the menu using the three dashes at top left or, better still, holding the device horizontally.

This view is the minimum one and is only recommended for briefly viewing or browsing information. Tables in particular can only be reduced in size up to a certain degree since they often have a fixed width. This means that images of tables are often truncated in Mobile Mode and the user has to scroll to view all the content.
