How to lock the dashboards groups locations

Hello,

I have created 3 groups in same tab like below.

  • 10x10 Group - in left [ map ]
  • 4*4 Group - in right top [ text ]
    44 Group - in right bottom [ gauge ]

I wanna fix their positions through out my project. At the begining they appears nicely. When I run the node also they are in the correct posions. But when I refresh the http://192.168.1.3:1880/ui/ dashboard all positions change. Simply they are out of my control.

I want to fix their positions even if i reload the ui. Any option to do that ? Kindly help me..

Thank you.

The groups will try to arrange based on the width of the browser window, so on a narrow screen they will stack vertically, etc .

The only way to force them is instead to set one large group to be 14 x 10 then size the widgets as you have within that one group.

you also can fix the position of the groups.

#TabName_GroupName, #TabName_GroupName_cards { position: fixed; top: 10vh; // top in percent right: 30vw; // width in percent }

Hello,

Thank you very much for the support. I will try this also.

Hallo Georg25,

can you specifize your Solution pls.

My Problem is, even with the Group Scaling Option, the Group don't have a fixed Position.
If i try to Start the Dashboard on a different Window, the Group Position isen't fixed.

Hi @Yadid,

an example to fix the position of group Default at tab Home is:


<style>
     #Home_Default,
     #Home_Default_cards {
          position: fixed; 
          top: 10vh;
          left: 30vw;
}
</style>

Or what do you mean with specifize the solution

Hi Georg25,

Ty for the fast help.

Can you explain the following Parameters:
#Home_Default,
#Home_Default_cards

Are these the combination of the Dashboard Tab + Group names?
Because i did not found the #Home_Default_cards Group.

Do you solve the problem with more then 1 Element in a Group. Because if you have more then 1 Element the tamplate Node will not Fix all Elements. Do you have a solution?

best regards

Yes it is the combination of tab name and group name.
No I do not test it with more elements in the group, but you can add for each element a group and set the position to whereever you want
