Can Dexpot be used for an unattended kiosk?

Postby RickH » 24.01.2013 16:03:53

I am trying to test Dexpot for use in an unattended kiosk. I want to show mulitple applications either in a tiled fashion or by switching from one application to the other. I have four applications that monitor company resources. Two are desktop applications and two are browser based applications. I want to display the screens for these four applications either in a tiled two by two display or by switching from one application to the other. All would be displayed on only one screen. Dual monitor support is not needed. Can this be done with Dexpot? Having this all start on bootup would be nice also.
Thanks,
RickH

Yes, that should be possible.

Place one application on each desktop. Then bring up the Full-screen preview for a live side-by-side view of all desktops or use the Slideshow plugin (Settings > Plugins and Extras) for timer-based automatic switching.

You can use "Configure Desktops > Start-up" to start the monitoring applications automatically on their specific desktops. The slideshow can be configured to run automatically as well.
