The Dashboard Studio Inspector Utility is a tool for prototyping your script that displays internal representations (node hierarchies and properties) of Interactive Reporting documents. By identifying the names of object properties, the utility enables you to write custom scripts that manipulate Interactive Reporting documents through the internal object model. These scripts are executed in EPM Workspace by the Impact Management Services Custom Update feature, or on the desktop through the Dashboard Development Services Update Utility or the Custom Update Script feature.
The user interface is organized in two panes; the left displays the node hierarchy, and the right displays the properties, values, and node data types.
To perform various actions (for example, to save a document or sort the node hierarchy), you can use the toolbar buttons (identified by their floating comments), commands provided from the menu bar, or keyboard shortcuts (identified next to the menu commands to which they correspond).
