Display Problem

[ngeshlew]

The website isn't displaying correctly on my browser. There is part being hidden. Can i suggest you make the site margin to be auto.

can you send me a screen shot? What browser/platform are you using as well.

[ngeshlew]

I am using Opera and Chrome,

Once the internet speeds come up I will attach the screenshot.

not sure what you are wanting me to change. That is how it is supposed to look. There are 4 panels and you swipe between them. The 2nd panel is peeking out from the right so you know there is more content there. That is how the panorama control works. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/ff941104(v=vs.105).aspx

So this is supposed to be viewed in a Windows Phone?

It can be, it can be used on any device of any screen. The inspiration behind the panorama library was the Windows Phone panorama control. The home view uses that effect to cleanly display 4 panels of information, 4 different movie list in this case. It is also used on the movie detail view, but I apply a much more complicated set of logic to utilize the content differently based on the screen size. If you look at many of the Windows store apps they also use this concept. It is a UX pattern, not a platform specific component. You should never fix your UI to a narrow set of platform specific concepts, rather it is better to use good UX patterns and give your application and its data its own personality. I hope that makes sense.

It makes sense but from the information I have read it seems as if it works only on touch-devices which will enable the panorama control to take effect and change the screen area. Have you tried on your device (e.g. Laptop) to see if the feature is working? Because on my browsers it isn't sliding.

Yes I have. The swiping uses my deeptissue library to manage. It falls back to mouse if pointers or Apple's touch API is not supported. For what it is worth Chrome sucks when it comes to handling touch right now. It does seem to be a little less than I would want in Chrome. You should be able to place your mouse between a movie poster and swipe right or left and it work every time. It seems that Chrome often uses the mouse down event to trigger the anchor tag before you get a chance to move the mouse, thus not recognizing the swipe.

I am trying to get some time to refactor deeptissue to be more efficient, I just keep getting more and more paying work these days :)

[ngeshlew]

:) You will manage.
Well the swiping has worked. Thanks for explaining further. Now can you try to add some hints when the website loads, on devices bigger than a Smartphone which don't have the touch capability so that it becomes easy to know a way around the website.
