Visual overview component on DataMiner 10.4.3

To configure this component:

1. In the Data pane, select the element for which the visual overview should be displayed and drag it to the component.

2. Optionally, customize the following component options in the Settings pane:

   • WebSocket settings: Allows you to customize the polling interval for this component. To do so, clear the checkbox in this section and specify the custom polling interval.

   • Page selection: In case the Visio drawing consists of several pages, select this checkbox to display a page selection dropdown list at the top of the component.

   • Default page: In case the Visio drawing consists of several pages, select the page that should be displayed by default in this dropdown list. Keep in mind that if Page selection is not selected, this is the only page the user will be able to see.

3. Optionally, fine-tune the component layout. See Customizing the component layout.

Zooming

Zooming functionalities are available for the Visual Overview component.

• From DataMiner 10.4.0 [CU10]/10.5.1 onwards, the zooming method depends on the Advanced > Hold Ctrl to zoom setting in the Settings pane:

  • When this setting is enabled: Hold the Ctrl key while scrolling up or down to zoom in or out.

  • When this setting is disabled: Scroll up or down to zoom in or out.

• From DataMiner 10.3.0 [CU18]/10.4.0 [CU6]/10.4.9 up to DataMiner 10.4.0 [CU9]/10.4.12:

  • To zoom in, press Ctrl while scrolling up.

  • To zoom out, press Ctrl while scrolling down.

• Prior to DataMiner 10.3.0 [CU18]/10.4.0 [CU6]/10.4.9:

Unsupported capabilities

The visual overviews shown in the DataMiner web apps are a lightweight version of their Cube counterparts. As such, not all functionality that is available in Cube will also be available in the web apps. Below, you can find a list of the main features that are not available in the web apps. However, note that this list is not exhaustive.

• Spectrum components.

• Interactivity features of the DataMiner Connectivity Framework (DCF), such as being able to click connection lines.

• Alarm list components (e.g. an alarm timeline or filtered Alarm Console).

• Drag/drop functionalities.

• Router Control components.

• Dynamic list components.

There are also some differences in functionality:

• If you navigate to an element, service, or view from a visual overview in a DataMiner web app, this will always open the Monitoring app, even if the visual overview is embedded in a dashboard or low-code app.

• Prior to DataMiner 10.4.10, when you have multiple components that show the same visual overview with user context (e.g. a visual overview with card variables), the contexts of those components are shared. For example, if you click a button on one component, the same action will be mirrored on the other component.
