Introduction
The Dynamic Configurable start screen feature allows the UBIK Service engineer to tailor the buttons on the start screen according to the needs of the customer.
Setup
- The first step is to configure the start screen data using an xml in order for UBIK® to recognize the different tabs and buttons. The xml file should be placed in a subfolder under the "UBIK" folder on the device's SD card. Buttons are configurable in terms of:
- Icon
- Caption
- Group/tab
- Action + Parameters if needed
- After the folder is configured, the next step is to validate the schema against an online validator. A solution can be found at Online XML Schema Validator. The schema used to validate against can be found inside the UBIK Folder and is named xsd_schema_validation.
The StartScreenConfiguration xml contains different actions such as GeometryAction (3D Object), MovieAction and UBIKObjectAction. The following xml shows an example configuration:
