Slingshot Announces “Touch” for Tablets

Slingshot’s mobile initiative continues with a new “touch friendly” user interface for its family of ERP applications.  Slingshot Touch^tm is turned on by clicking a button on the application status bar.  Form elements are immediately optimized for tablet users.  Here are a few of the adjustments.

• Menu items and Drop down lists are taller
• Toolbar icons are replaced with large buttons
• Vertical swipe to conveniently scroll large lists
• Auto-enlarge font when keyboard pops up

All Slingshot features are supported when using touch mode and work in a similar fashion, allowing users to easily switch between desktops and tablets with no training.

Slingshot Touch^tm is supported on all iOS and Android based tablets (e.g. iPad, iPad mini, Samsung Galaxy, Kindle Fire).  The feature is scheduled for general availability in July as part of release G2-4.
