Hello,

My flow is going to receive alarm signals from an opto 22 which i'm simulating with and inject node. I show the alarms status in the dashboard and change the color on the buttons depending if the alarms have been recognized by the user or not. The flow shows a notification with the name of each alarm and after is clicked the alarm color changes from red to yellow.

Problem:  
With one screen it works fine, the issue is when I add my second screen for alarm monitoring. When I send the signal to trigger one alarm the popup notification appears on both of my dashboard tables at the same time. I just want the notification to popup on the tab that is on it's flow, the thing is that the notification node does not have an option to assign a group/table like the ui\_template node has.

I fixed myself and wanted to share the answer with you all. Basically I used the tag and the ng-click property available for dashboard template nodes. This gives you the ability to perform exactly the same task the notification node does on the ok/cancel form, which is to send the message just when the button is clicked. You can do that by adding on setting the button as \<md-button ng-click="send(msg)". After that you do some html and css in order to make that button appear in a dialog box, and to appear and disapear as needed. And in this way you avoid the issue I reported of having this notification appear on each tab you have created on you dashboard. As not all of then might be related to the notification you are showing.
