Notable UI changes

We made a few changes to some elements of the User Interface within ComCept .Net (Utopia and OrderLinx) so that multiple browsers and advanced mobile devices are supported.  The changes were necessary in order to use browser features that were available on all platforms.  We consciously limited our changes with the new UI techniques to be as similar to the old techniques as possible.

1. Screens that include a “Print” button, such as Customer Count Sheet and Inventory Document Generation will always open the printed report in a new tab, instead of embedding the report inside the current page.  This is mainly so more of the report can be seen at once.

   New:
   
2. Many of the pop-up windows inside Utopia and OrderLinx are now embedded inside the opening page.  This was necessary because some browsers can’t keep track of popped-up windows.  Since pop-ups are now encapsulated in the opening page, we maintain complete control over the pop-up in all browsers.
