I'm using multiple screen to check on dune dashboards: laptop, big monitor and phone.
# And the Dashboard does not adjust to the display properly:
1. Different monitor size causes white space to appear in the dashboard.
2. And mobile display is just π’
I think most dune wizards built from a desktop so there is no consideration for mobile users.
# Here are a few notes:
A. The widget display should resize images to maintain the aspect ratio on different displays.
B. The mobile widget should adjust its height based on textual content (currently it just snips off extra text)
C. There should be better guidelines on general dashboard construction.
# On the mobile widget display algorithm:
I. Right now the mobile widget display algorithm does top to bottom and left to right in a robotic way.
II. While generally sound in principle the algorithm does not take into account the 2 dimensionality of a desktop made dashboard that it is compacting into a 1 dimension.
i.e the visual pathway of a dashboard is not linear (see attached image as an example)
III. For mobile optimisation, having an option where the author can link all the widgets and visualisations using a master story connector that connects all of the boxes on the dashboard, would help the mobile display.
