Editing a dashboard

When viewing a dashboard you can dynamically drag and drop applicable components onto the dashboard and see new values displayed instantly. This procedure describes adding a BooleanWritable point to a dashboard displaying a WebChart that is already plotting data for a NumericWritable point.
Prerequisites:
  • An existing Px page with a dashboard viewed either in the Workbench PxView mode or in a browser connection. The dashboard displays a WebChart that is already plotting data for a NumericWritable point
Perform the following steps:
  1. In the PxViewer or a browser, change the dashboard data by dragging another point (for example, a BooleanWritable) from the Nav Tree onto the chart.
    The dashboard content immediately changes to display data from both points, as shown. Also, editing data in a dashboard activates the Save command.

  2. Click the Save command at the top of the dashboard.
    Once saved, your changes will load the next time you view this dashboard.
     NOTE: Saving a change activates the Clear command so that you can remove your changes if you wish.
