Allowing users easy access to document content: docked headers and footers

You can ensure that users always have access to a section of content in a mobile document by adding the content to a docked page header or page footer. The content of a docked page header is always displayed at the top of the screen, while a docked page footer is always displayed at the bottom, regardless of screen size. Docked headers and footers remain in the same place on the screen as the user scrolls up or down in the document, allowing the user easy access to the footer's content.

Some examples of how you can use docked headers and footers are:

  • To display important information, such as the name of your company, project, or app, copyright information, or contact information.

  • To create a navigation bar of useful links. Do this if you want to create a custom navigation bar instead of the tab bar MicroStrategy provides. For steps to create a tab bar, see Creating a tab bar to hold buttons.

Steps are below to define a docked page header or page footer.

To dock a header or footer to the top or bottom of a document

  1. Right-click the page header or page footer section that you want to define as docked, then select Properties and Formatting. The Properties and Formatting dialog box opens.

  2. From the left, click General in the Properties section. Do one of the following:

    • To display the page header or page footer as an ordinary header or footer that is not docked to the top or bottom of the document, clear the Dock to top of screen (Mobile only) check box or the Dock to bottom of screen (Mobile only) check box

    • To display the page header or page footer as docked, select the Dock to top of screen (Mobile only) check box or the Dock to bottom of screen (Mobile only) check box.
