Hi, sir

I have installed dashboard1 and dashboard 2 together in my Node-RED, pls see below picture for detail, and my node-red version is 3.1.11, and node-red-dashboard version is 3.6.5.

Although I can edit the node and ui control component from dashboard2, when I deploy the frontend page, it still shows the pages from dashboard1, how can I switch from dashboard1 frontend to dashboard2?

If you click the “Open Dashboard” button, it’ll open the new Dashboard for you. D1.0 uses /ui/…, D2.0 uses /dashboard/… so they can run alongside each other

Hi,

Thank you. I found the button to open the new frontend

I have met a second problem, which is that when I click the layout editor of dashboard 2, I found the layout editor link is not available, I am using the node-red app in Rexroth ctrlX platform, is it incompatible with Rexroth platform, or I need to install additional package or component?

Ooh, that may well be an issue. Can you view the Dashboard without the layout editor, i.e. if you go to /dashboard/page1 directly?

Yeah, I can access the /dashboard/page1 directly.

So, there is no big influence if I can not enter the layout editor? I can just set the each components’ size separately to change the layout, although it is kind of inconvenient.

It’s definitely odd, I can’t think of why that would happen. Rexroth may have some strict rules around URL routing, maybe, but it’s still loading the page. I’ve verified the layout editor does work locally and on FlowFuse, so it’s not a problem across the board.

@Steve-Mcl any thoughts?

You can also click and drag in the dashboard pane to set the order.

Gotta be something funky with how node-red is hosted on the Bosch box - see how it appends a query param editor-path=node-red - that might be a clue.
