Killer New Features in InTouch HMI 2017
Support for Frame Windows to Host ArchestrA Graphics
Frame windows can be used in WindowMaker in addition to class application windows. Frame windows host a single ArchestrA Graphic and provide the user the ability to dynamically resize windows at run time.
Support for Panning and Zooming at Run Time Using Mouse, Keyboard and Touch Gestures This feature enables the user to pan and zoom at run time using mouse, keyboard and touch gestures. This feature is enabled by properties configured in a frame window.
Create Modern and Managed InTouch Applications Using Application Templates A user can create a Modern or Managed InTouch application from an application template. Available application templates are available in the Application Template Browser. This feature also enables the user to create application windows from template windows as well as set application windows to become available as template windows for reuse.
Run InTouch as a Service When WindowViewer is configured to run as a service, an application directory path is now entered in the Node Properties dialog box to automatically run the specified application as a service with WindowViewer. WindowViewer will run in a non-Graphical User Interface mode.

Licenses are ‘activated’ with an activation code and that code is associated/locked to the License Server at the customer site resulting in greater license flexibility and higher license compliance. This new Activated licensing makes use of our new License Manager which makes activating, managing, and upgrading licenses simple. This has multiple additional advantages such as: the archestra.lic license files are no longer needed, no more license dongles, no more RDS (T/TP/TF/TPF), Failover, or RDS Concurrent parts, and no more paper High Availability part.
