Make Workfront Full Screen (in Chrome)

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stylebot/oiaejidbmkiecgbjeifoejpgmdaleoha?hl=en This is a plugin for chrome only, however you can probably find something for IE or Firefox that does the same thing.

Hi Craig, Thanks for this excellent tip -- and interesting precident! One of my colleagues recorded a video of the steps to make it easier for our clients to adjust their browsers, which I'd like to share with those who'd like to see it in action: http://www.screencast.com/t/8eVZskNiAi Regards, Doug

We've found that most users absolutely love having Workfront displaying in wide-screen. As an analogy, I reckon it is similar to the feeling you get when you first take off ski goggles (or a snorkel mask). The only issue I've found is that some matrix reports don't display properly (dashboard or otherwise) but it is worth having it wide-screen for the rest of the time, even if you have to switch it off occasionally. Hopefully Workfront adopt this and make it standard for all users soon.

I haven't seen issues with matrix reports yet. It might be possible to fix that. Is it some particular area (like a dashboard) that is causing the problems?

Hi Craig, There are two cases that I have seen issues with Matrix reports: On a dashboard, I have two matrix reports plus several other chart reports. The matrix reports have one vertial grouping and one horizontal grouping. Including the Total column, there are 4 columns on the report. Around 50% of the time, the matrix reports load using the full screen width. The other 50% of the time the reports load quite narrow on the left of the screen (taking up approx 25% of the screen width). Sometimes it is only one, and sometimes both of them do this....completely random. I usually have to reload the page a couple of times so that I can get both matrix reports displaying full width. The rest of the chart reports always display perfectly. I have a different matrix report, which I am running directly (not via a dashboard). Sometimes this report shows with the last row (totals) off the bottom of the screen. Today I actually can't fault it but if I can find an example I can replicate which is consistent I will let you know. Cheers

Thanks Craig! I followed your video, very helpful. But where do i put the css code for Gantt fix?? is that instead of the original css code, or in addition to?

You would replace all the CSS code. The Gantt fix acutally involved removing one of the style declarations. For either the full screen Gantt fix, or the full screen Gantt fix with update styling, delete all the CSS that is there now and replace with the new CSS.

Thanks Craig! You are a Star.... .... Nate!! I nominate Craig for the Super Scout Badge :) Cheers, Phil
