Create a Custom Dashboard

Create personalized dashboards to examine model data, understand analysis results, and observe key metrics pertinent to your design.

Create a Dashboard

By default, viewing your analysis reveals an overview dashboard showing a basic carbon analysis of your model. Create custom dashboards for deeper exploration of your model's data.

To create a dashboard:

3. Click 'Edit Dashboard' to enter the editing mode.
4. Enable the 'Card Library' to add cards to the dashboard. The following cards are available:

• Data Display - Report a value from data in your model. A Data Display can be configured to report analysis results, metrics, or model data.
• Dropdown - Link a Dropdown card with a factor having multiple values, for instance, a factor such as 'Reference study period'. Changing the value of the Dropdown on the dashboard will update other cards linked to data using the same factor.
• Bar Chart - Display a Metric value in a bar chart. If the metric is comprised of data from various sources, the bar chart will be divided into different colors representing the distinct values.
• 3D View - A 3D representation of your analytical model.
• Text - Incorporate freeform text to a card on the dashboard.

5. Select the cards to add from the card library and click 'Add'. Note: Cards are added to the lower left position on the dashboard.
6. Position the cards on the dashboard by clicking and dragging the cards. As you drag, the new location is highlighted. Other cards will automatically adjust to accommodate the card's new location.
7. (Optional) Click the icon on the card and select 'Delete' to remove the card from the dashboard.
8. Click 'Done' to save the Dashboard configuration. Note: Any unconfigured cards on the dashboard will be deleted when the dashboard is saved.
