Hi Dmitry,
a lot of deciyions depend on answering the question, if the app will run on a tablet too or exclusively on the tabket. Acrually I am writing two apps now which I test on a tablet.
The first is designed to run on it too. Here, in its simplest form, I have only one field for data-entry. I use the windows-tablet-keypad and this works fine. The main thing to look at, is to keep the software as simple as possible. Just present the necessary main functionality and hide extra-features which are not often needed in some sub menus.
After my first test, I decides to run all windows in maximized-mode, so there is no confusion with different windows and how to touch the right one.
The other app is designed to run mainly as a touch-screen-app, no matter if on a tablet or a pos-pc. Here I haev written my own numericc- and keyboard-pad with which the users can enter data. This is a bit of work and I am still workung on it, but it integrates more in the "handling flow" of the app.
If you run a prototype for the first time on a tablet you will easily see, what to do with the interface. The buttons should be big enough, use colors to seperate different parts of functionality on the form and choose fonts which are easily readable.
Best regards
Thomas
