Viewing and using dashboards

The charts generated by stream views are presented in dashboards. Certain kinds of chart can also be generated ad-hoc, for example, to view the contents of a stream set from a stream set form, a Data Grid is produced.

Chart type: Data Grid

...

Details for an individual Stream Item can be viewed by double clicking on a row and selecting Show Stream Item Details from the context menu. This bring up the Stream Item Form with details of the Stream Item selected.You can "drill down" into the data that was used to generate an item on the Data Grid by right clicking on a row, and selecting Drill Down from the context menu. This will open the Drill Down view for this Stream Item.

Chart buttons

Charts provides the standard grid icons.

They also provides the following icons:

Image Modified	Shows a list of any Stream Actions associated with the Stream View. The user may select one of these actions e.g. to update specific data on the grid.
Image Modified	Refresh the chart.
Image Modified	Select an existing (or predefined) Filter or create, delete and modify Filters. This causes the chart to refresh and display only those entries which match the selected Filter.
Image Modified	Select an existing (or predefined) multi-column Sort Order or create, delete and modify Sort Orders. Note that data is ordered across all records which are implied by the Filter, not just the current page of data.
Image Modified	Pressing this icon toggles the display of other standard icons and the additional icons below.
Image Modified	Displays summary details of the Stream View.
Image Modified	Displays detail common to Dashboard Elements. This icon is only displayed when a Stream View is added to a Dashboard.
Image Modified	Modifies selected items displayed in the Chart. When this button is pressed, a form containing all fields in the Chart will appear. If a value is entered into any of these fields, the value will be applied to all items displayed.
Image Modified	Exports the data currently being viewed in the grid using a Database Exporter or a File Exporter. The user can select an exporter from the list of Database and File Exporters attached to the underlying stream. Note that this will export all data, not just the current paged result. However, any filters on the pipe connecting the stream to the Database or File Exporter selected will be applied, so not all records displayed in the Chart may be exported - some may be filtered out in the pipe.
Image Modified	Shows Alarms associated with this Chart.
Image Modified	Shows the configuration of the underlying Stream.
Image Modified	Opens the download data form allowing the user to export just the selected items or all data on the chart as either an Excel file, a CSV (comma separated) file or as an HTML document.
Image Modified	Shows the list of Stream Views.
