# POS UI Optimization **Odoo 19 | Custom Addon** Optimizes the Point of Sale UI for resource-constrained devices and adds a **switchable portrait display mode** designed for 6-inch touchscreen terminals. --- ## Features ### 1. Incremental Product Rendering Prevents low-RAM devices from freezing when the product catalogue is large. - Only **40 products** are rendered on initial load - More products load automatically as the user scrolls down - Resets the counter when the search word or category changes ### 2. Incremental Order Line Rendering Same approach for the order/cart display. - Only **20 order lines** rendered initially - Scrolling loads more lines progressively - Ensures the selected line is always visible (expands count if needed) ### 3. Portrait Mode (6-inch Display) A dedicated compact layout for portrait-orientation small screens. Designed for devices like 6-inch Android POS terminals where the standard Odoo two-column layout clutters the screen. #### Layout ``` ┌──────────────────────────────┐ │ Navbar (compact) │ ├──────────────────────────────┤ │ │ │ Active tab pane: │ │ Products / Cart / Numpad │ │ │ ├──────────────────────────────┤ │ TOTAL: Rp X,XXX [Send][Pay]│ ← always visible ├──────────────────────────────┤ │ [Products] [Cart] [Numpad]│ ← bottom tab bar └──────────────────────────────┘ ``` #### Key Differences from Standard Mode | Feature | Standard | Portrait | |---|---|---| | Layout | Two-column (order left, products right) | Single pane with bottom tabs | | Product grid | `auto-fill minmax(115px)` | Fixed 2 columns | | Product images | Full aspect ratio | Capped at 90px height | | Numpad | Shown inline in left pane | Dedicated "Numpad" tab | | Pay/Send | Inside left pane action pad | Always-visible bottom strip | | Navbar | Full labels | Compact with smaller padding | #### Auto-Activation Portrait mode **auto-activates** when the browser viewport width is **< 400 px** on first load. A manual override is always available via the burger menu (☰ → Switch to Portrait/Standard Mode). The choice is saved to `localStorage`. #### Send Button Behavior The **Send** button appears only when: 1. The POS is in restaurant mode (`module_pos_restaurant = True`) 2. At least one **Preparation Category** is configured in POS → Kitchen Printers settings 3. The current order has unsent changes (`nbrOfChanges > 0`) 4. The order is not a direct sale / refund This mirrors Odoo's standard restaurant `swapButton` logic exactly. --- ## Installation 1.
