New version for mobile devices
The mobile view is easily available to all users without prior installation. Your team can start directly with it.
The mobile template shows all entries in EGroupware at all times and thus goes beyond individual synchronised applications.
We have placed special emphasis on a good display on mobile devices. Together with our testers, our development team has revised the applications for mobile devices so that everything remains clear in less space.
Colour codes now help you find the different applications more quickly. The menu of each view can be collapsed by the user – for more space on the smartphone.
You can switch to other applications more quickly via the app overview.
A click on the avatar shows or hides the familiar top menu settings. The mobile template supports swipe gestures as you know them from your mobile device.
The context menu button replaces the right-click. Here you can open various actions and apply them to your entries while on the move.
With the plus button you can quickly add new entries – similar to what you are used to from your mobile device with other (native) applications.
A simple click on the star button now shows your favourites on mobile devices – contacts or appointments that are particularly important to you are displayed more quickly.
Completely new calendar
From 16.1, the toolbar in the header area is perfectly adapted to the use of the calendar. Here you can quickly switch between the day, week or month view with just one click or hide the weekend.
Views that you don’t need often can simply be dragged out of the toolbar and dropped into “more”.
In the calendar, too, colours now show the categories in each view. This makes appointment coordination with EGroupware even clearer.
Appointments can now also be moved between different calendars by drag-and-drop. Thus, for example, inviting people to appointments is even faster than before. The new colleague is responsible for selecting a product photographer – simply drag the entry onto his or her calendar.
New, light look and feel
The side menu can be switched off in all applications from 16.1. This means that there is more space to work even on smaller screens.
EGroupware remembers for each application whether you prefer the side menu open or closed. If you jump between apps, you do not have to switch off the side menu again.
From now on, you will always find the Add button in the top left corner of the header – no matter whether it is the calendar or the address book.
EGroupware 16.1 has been optimised for switching between different monitors. This makes it easier for you to work with different screens.
