Displays is the collective term for: Charts, Tables, LatestValues and dataBlocks
Common Features
All dataZoa displays share some common features:
- Live, automatically updated whenever underlying data or calculations change
- Embeddable, with a unique URL you can put into web pages, blogs, etc.
- Can be sent point-to-point by email or SMS
- Shareable, through dZBoards
- Automated footers, for attributions, exporting, etc.
Creating
- From the dropZone, open the Gear menu and pick a display type.
- From the Workbench, checkbox the series you want to include, click the button for the type of display you want, and select New... in the drop-down list.
This will bring up the appropriate display editor and give you an immediate preview of your new display. Once you give it a name and save it, it will be added to your list of displays of that type.
If you want to create several display variants from the same general group of data, consider using the dZCorkboard.
Editing
Once you have made a display permanent by giving it a name, you can go back and edit it at any time.
In the Workbench, select the type of display you want to edit.
You will see a drop-down list where you can pick a particular display by name. This brings up a display editor. Make and your changes and press Save. Changes are automatically reflected wherever the display is used.
