Home / Dashboard

The content of the home page and dashboard is organized into portlets that can be collapsed, expanded, resized, and moved. Portlets are screen width responsive.

This example shows three chart portlets. You can interact with the charts, e.g. hiding a series by clicking on the legend or hovering over a point to display detailed information in a tooltip. You can also download the chart as an image.

Portlet

The Home and Dashboard screens are organized as a set of portlets. Each portlet type is color coded and can be moved and resized according to your needs. You will find all of the familiar OpenAir Dashboard functionality encapsulated within these portlets.

Portlet features:

• Portlets have a title that displays in the center when the portlet is collapsed and at the top when the portlet is expanded.

  Note:

  When collapsed the number of items in the portlet is displayed on the left.

• Portlets can be moved by dragging the portlet title. To keep a pleasing appearance, portlets automatically align to a grid.

  Note:

  The Message Board portlet is always shown first and cannot be moved from the top left position on the Dashboard.

• Portlets can be collapsed or expanded by clicking on the / Icons or by single clicking on the portlet title.

• When expanded, portlets have action buttons displayed in the top right depending on the portlet type. An action hint is displayed if you hover your mouse over the button.

  If the content does not fit within the portlet area, then the content will either automatically resize or scrollbars will be displayed. Portlets with a icon can be edited to display different information. For portlets which display information from a report, you can open the report from the portlet by clicking the icon. You can delete a portlet by clicking the icon.

Important:

The maximum number of rows that report portlet can display is limited for performance reasons. The limit depends on your OpenAir account configuration. We recommend that you use filters to reduce the report size so all data show on the portlet.

Chart

Colorful and interactive graphs create offer a productive and in-depth way to work with performance metrics.

Chart features:

• Dynamic — You can directly interact with the charts by simply clicking on them. For example, you can hide a series by clicking on the series in the legend.

• Tooltip Labels — Point to a chart to display a tooltip with information on each point and series. The tooltip follows as the user moves the mouse over the graph, and great efforts have been taken to make it stick to the nearest point as well as making it easy to read a point that is below another point.

• Export Chart — You can export the chart as an image by clicking on the icon.

• Chart Preview — You can see a preview of the chart type when editing the Chart Portlet.

• Chart Types — The following new chart types are available in OpenAir: Donut, Area Spline, Stack Area, and horizontal / vertical stacked-bar.

Project Dashboard

The Project Dashboard gives a visual analysis of a specific project and is useful for visually comparing projects.

Note:

All items displayed on the Project Dashboard are filtered by the specific project. Only saved reports with the “Make this report available in project-specific situations” option selected are shown in the Reports portlet and available to create Charts.
