User Interface
The enaio® webclient user interface consists of four areas.

You can access various features and areas via the main menu:
|
Dashboard | ![]() |
|
Object search | |
|
Desktop | |
|
Quick search | |
|
Inbox | |
|
External tray | |
|
Favorites | |
|
History | |
|
User menu |

If you click or tap on the Object search,
Desktop,
Quick search,
Inbox, or
External tray icon in the main menu, the navigation area will open and show details about the objects and data you can access in enaio®.
Using the Pin icon at the top right of the navigation area, you can pin it to the interface so that it will not automatically collapse if you click or tap on another area.

Search forms, hit lists, dialogs, locations, and information about objects are displayed in the workspace.
Certain information about objects can be shown in both the workspace and the preview.
The workspace has its own title bar containing:
-
Information about the search form or hit list currently open and/or about the object, dialog, or location currently displayed.
You can view information about the location or object in a message box in open filing locations and index data forms by clicking or tapping and holding the title bar. This is a useful feature, especially on small screens like those you’ll find on a smartphone. What information is displayed, how it is presented, and the order in which it is shown depends on how the hit list is configured (see Configuring Hit Lists).
-
Context-specific functions in the
More actions menu
-
Functions for filtering and for
Refresh
The following applies if you are using enaio® mobile:
Object lists can be refreshed using the "pull-to-refresh" gesture. To do this, scroll to the top of the object list, tap on the list, and pull it down using your finger. A
Refresh icon appears in the object list, while at the same time the object list is queried and imported again.
The following applies if you are using enaio® mobile on a smartphone:
The filter input field is hidden on a smartphone due to limited screen space available on the device. Tapping the
Filter icon opens the filter input field.

If you select a document in a hit list, folder, or inbox, you can view the content, index data, advanced properties, and further information about workflows, the history, notes, and follow-ups for this document in the preview area.
The preview area only displays the index data and advanced properties of registers and folders.
By clicking the Undock icon in the title bar of the preview area, you can separate the preview area from the enaio® webclient and display it in its own browser window. You can adjust the size of this separate browser window and move it to a separate monitor.
If you close the separate browser window by clicking on the icon, the preview area will be docked to the enaio® webclient again.
The following applies if you are using enaio® mobile:
The preview area undock function is not supported in enaio® mobile.
In enaio® mobile, open the preview area by
- tapping on a document in an object list (e.g., in a hit list, at a filing location, in the favorites area) (single touch).
- selecting an object (for example, folders, registers, and documents) from an object list and clicking the
Show object function in the context menu.
The preview area will then move on top of the workspace.
See The Preview Area for information on the functions available in the preview area and how to use it.
The width of the workspace between the navigation and preview area is dynamically adjusted to the width of the browser window. You can adjust the width of all areas using the separator bars.

When working in offline mode, the user interface is disabled in the desktop application of enaio® webclient and in enaio® mobile, except for the favorites area and the User menu in the main menu. The favorites area is also shown with a
Offline objects icon in offline mode instead of with the star (
Favorites) icon.

On smartphones, the user interface is designed differently in some areas due to the limited screen space available on such devices.
The display changes if the screen of the mobile device is less than 420 pixels in width or height.
The differences in terms of the look and use on the smartphone are highlighted on the relevant pages in this documentation.
