Dashboard

By logging into mDIS the project Dashboard is opened:

It can contain different widgets:

• giving an overview of the general project information,
• the location of the sites and/or holes,
• the daily hole advance,
• the message of the day,
• a postbox for short messages or
• an instructions widget for tutorials, summaries, etc..

Only systemadministrators can edit the widgets of a mDIS instance by turning on the edit mode in the upper right corner of the dashboard.

Now each widget gets at least two icons in the bottom left (Fig. 2).

• A double column of three dots (drag points) and a gear.
  • If you move the mouse to the drag points and hold the left mouse button down, you can drag the widget to another position.
  • The gear icon opens the settings of a widget. Here you can modify the widget information and its appearance.
• Some widgets can also be used multiple types (green sheets symbol). For example one widget can show an overview of different sites and another can show the holes of a site.

If a widget is not used, it can be found at the bottom of the dashboard under ‘inactive widgets’. To use it, just drag and drop it on the drag points.

Dashboard open questions and comments

• Where do I need to store files and images for implementation? (Instructions Widget, Message of the Day Widget).
• Sites and Holes Widget: In projects with different sites I would like to see the different sites in different Widgets.
