Adding a Card

To add a card:

  1. Open a dashboard and click Edit on the top panel. The dashboard turns into the Edit mode.

  2. Click the Cards tab on the left panel. The Cards explorer displays.

  3. Click the Add Card icon . A slide window displays.

  4. Enter the card name. Select a card master, if desired.

    A master is a card to be rendered behind the current card. Therefore anything placed on the master will be accessible from the current card.

    Its purpose is to provide reuse of a set of views that can then be shared by other cards. You can create a card with a logo, navigation etc. and set it as the card master for other cards.

    It is possible to have a number of master cards being used. For example if we have cards A, B and C, then C can be the master of B, and B can be the master of A. Therefore in viewing card A you will see the all views on card B and C at the same time.

  5. Click the OK icon .

The card is successfully created.
