AMI dashboard builder has two modes. When the Layout Editor is turned on, you have access to tools and functionality for editing the dashboard.

Note: if you do not see the Layout Editor Button, your user account is not entitled for building layouts.

  • The Windows menu will have an option to add New Windows and to Manage Windows
  • There will be a new Dashboard menu item for accessing tools
  • All existing panels will have a green button for accessing that panel's settings

2. The Menu

  • File: manage saving and loading of dashboards

  • Help: get AMI version, Runtime settings, and list of available script methods, etc.
  • Dashboard (in Layout Editor mode): access tools and functionality for building out the dashboard

(Clicking on the 3Forge icon will open up 3Forge's website in a new tab)
