The dZMirror is an add-on for Microsoft Excel that links the cells of an Excel spreadsheet to the cells of a tabular dataZoa display.The dZMirror
The "dZMirror"
icon appears in the footer of tabular displays if you enable it when creating the display. Anyone viewing your display can use it download the add-in and mirror it into their own spreadsheet.
You can download the dZMirror add-in here.
If you allow a display to be posted publicly, be sure that related series are marked as public. When a private series is viewed outside its account, and its title shows as "Unavailable" its values show "NA."
- When you send displays and data from dataZoa, you are typically circulating live, automatically updating work.
- Everyone who sees your displays stays current with your own view.
- This is very different from the typical "snapshot" approach of sending around files or images.
- To send a "snapshot" that does not update, just make a PDF and circulate that file.
