Hi,

I am using Excel 2010 with SP 2010, when I create a Mobile pivot dashboard from a pivot table in Excel, the mobile pivot table is completely static, and doesnt have accept any kind of user interaction. Do you have any documentation around this?

Also,

If I use KPI indicators (green, yellow, and red circles) in a mobile cell range, they don't show up in the mobile view. Any way to get them to come through?

Thanks
joe

Interacting with the pivot table is only supported with NTLM authentication at this time.

For the KPIs, right now we support Charts and Sparklines out of the box. Do these KPIs come through in Excel Services? If so, we should be able to support those in the future.

Sorry to bomboard with questions, but is the Mobile BI Feed limited to showing only 2 charts at a time?

No worries,

To get more to show on the home screen, bump your Row Limit up in the App Feed Home Screen View. Technically, each item in the BI feed is 2-3 rows so that's why you are only seeing 2 if your row limit is 5.

Thanks for the tips.

KPI's do come through in excel services.

Is there any support for PerformancePoint Services (in SP 2010)? A couple limitations I'm running into is the grainy, pixelated view of the charts displayed in Excel Services (understandably a SP/Excel Services limitation), as well as the lack of ability to drill down by clicking on the chart (which there has to be a work around for).

Thanks

Can you send our support team an example workbook that has your KPIs in it? We just want to see how you are achieving this.

PerformancePoint is not supported in this release. It is on our roadmap.

You can increase the resolution of the Charts by increasing the "Chart Width" property in the Excel Add-in.

Out of the box, we do not support any drilldown capabilities. Through the API, however, it could be built as a custom app. We make available the mobile views of an excel document through the ME API.

Ok, do you have any examples of exposing a mobile view in a feed application thru code (c#)?

Also, any reason why I cannot access EntreeApplicationInfo, as shown in one of your videos, with the EntreeServer.Module.dll v2.0.50727? I can send a screenshot if needed, but its the only object I can't access.

I see that its not shown in the Object Model Reference on the "Docs" page, don't know if this is just an oversight?

Thanks for the support.

The RegisterApplications method was removed with v1.1 and the data that used to be populated in there is now captured via Properties. If you create a new class that implements the EntreeApplication class, you will see that there are only a couple of required properties now, Title and PluginPath. PluginPath can return blank and the title is only used as the title in the mobile app instance creation menu.

The most important thing to pay attention to in that old video is the QueryList method. I will make a note on that post that the project is out of date.

I am actually putting together some new SDK content today and I'll upload what I have so far...

Attached is a Visual Studio 2010 project that is an update to that "Site Stats" sample. In addition to updating it to work with ME 2.0, I have included a sample app feed. You will notice that App feeds do not have control objects yet, you have to declare the list style and populate the properties by hand. The list styles and properties map to the "Platform_X" XML files installed at 14/TEMPLATE/IMAGES/EntreeServer/base.

Edit: If you do not have VS 2010, you can just use the .cs file in there.

File Attachment(s):
MESample2010.zip (51kb) downloaded 7 time(s).

What code should be used to add a button next to the Home and Up buttons?

Those are ActionItems. In the sample code file above, there is a back button that is used after drilling into the page stats.
