Tablet layout not working on Samsung S7 (11'')

Hello, the tablet layout does not appear in Collabora. Although apps like Word or WPS Office shows it. Moreover, if I run Collabora on Dex then the layout appears. Probably it is something about a DPI change while in DEX?
My device is a Samsung S7 11-inch 2560 x 1600
Thanks in advance
P.S. I would share the image that shows that everything is fine on WPS Office but apparently I am not allowed to upload more than one image.

Hey @Urlo. Welcome to the forum + thanks for the question. :slight_smile:

Hmmm… can you explain a little more:

  • What is the exact version of the Collabora app?
  • What Android version are you running?
  • How exactly are you getting Collabora running through DEX?
    • Connecting phone → monitor using an HDMI cable?

And other Android apps you use kick into Tablet mode when running on the higher resolution screen?

Hello and thanks for answering back,
I am running One UI 5.1.1 based on Android 13. The Collabora Version is 23.05.7.4
I am running DEX directly on the tablet (Options available on Samsung Tablets but not on phones)
Another app that get kicked into tablet mode, only while in DEX, is ZOOM (Meeting App).

Great @Urlo. Thanks for all the extra info.

Do you have a Github account?

If you do, you could…

Then the team can more easily track this feature for the future! :slight_smile:


Also, how are you liking DeX?

What are you typically using it for?

What sorts of apps work well on it?

Hi, as stated in my first post I do not want to suggest new features for the application. Instead, I want to understand why the Tablet UI appears in DEX mode but not in the normal tablet-mode.
