Rubix Wires: Using the Dashboard


The Dashboard is a user interface within Rubix Wires. It can display values from the Editor Pane, and it can provide inputs to control the logic flows created in the Editor Pane. Multiple Dashboards can be created.

Dashboard Nodes

Dashboard nodes are specialised types of nodes.  When Dashboard nodes are added to the Editor Pane, the corresponding Dashboard Widget will be displayed on the Dashboard Pane.   Likewise, removing a Dashboard node from the Editor Pane will remove the corresponding Dashboard Widget from the Dashboard Pane.

Creating Multiple Dashboards

By default, Dashboard Widgets are added to the Dashboard Panel of the Folder that the Dashboard Node is located.  However this can be modified in the settings of each Dashboard Node.  Changing the ‘UI Panel Name’ setting of a Dashboard Node will move the corresponding Dashboard widget to the named Dashboard Panel.   Dashboard Panels can be selected in the Menu Sidebar.
