Within PlanetPress Connect Designer. You can open the Preview tab or the Live tab in
the Workspace. This displays the output HTML along with any variable data being added.
On the Live tab you can even fill out the form and submit it, and if the Get Job Data File on
Submit option is enabled (via the toolbar of the same name), the Designer will receive an
XML with the submitted data (see "Get Job Data File on Submit " on the next page).
However, remember that COTG Form elements are only functional in the COTG app, so
they won't submit any data.
l
Within the default browser on your computer. Click the Preview HTML button in the
toolbar. This opens your operating system’s default browser and displays the form in that
context.
Tip
In the Designer, you can test the responsiveness of a form using the
Responsive Design button at the top right of the workspace.
Some browsers also let you test the responsiveness of a form. In Firefox, for
example, select Developer > Responsive Design to view a form in different sizes.
Previewing a COTG Template in the app
A COTG Template cannot only be previewed on a PC; it can also be previewed on a mobile
device. This will show the template within the Capture OnTheGo mobile application, and all
widgets will be functional.
In order to test or use any Capture OnTheGo features you need to have a Repository account
(also called a COTG Server account or the Store ID). You can get a trial account for this
purpose; please see this page for more details: http://www.captureonthego.com/en/promotion/.
Once you have your Store ID and Password, you also need to create a user account:
1. Go to the Capture OnTheGo Repository Login: https://config-us.captureonthego.com/.
2. Login with your Store ID and Password.
3. Go to the Users page.
4. Add a new user. The user name should be in the form of an email address.
