Hello!
I have project that I am currently working on which requires that I display the gross power of a power plant on each page or tab on ui dashboard. I used to achieve this on smaller projects that is duplicating the gross power function created in one flow and using it on the other flows. But this time I am working on new project which is a bit heavy and duplicating the gross power function will make my project cumbersome and slow. I was wondering if it is possible for me to make one ui group global and have it displayed on other pages without having to duplicate it. That is making one group fixed on all pages irrespective of the changes make to other groups within the ui tab.
Thanks for any help on this.
Which dashboard are you using, the old node-red-dashboard or the new Flowfuse node red dashboard (@flowfuse/node-red-dashboard)? The original is not being further developed.
Hello Colin!
Thank you for responding.
I am still using the old node-red-dashboard
In FlowFuse Dashboard (Dashboard 2.0) it's possible with Teleports: Template ui-template | Node-RED Dashboard 2.0 to have it render in the top navigation bar. In the original Dashboard, I'm not aware of a way of doing it.
Some thoughts -
If this relates to calulating figures etc, then there is no need to duplicate this part as you can send the output via link nodes to other tabs.
What does this consist of e.g. is it just a value or something you could fit in the header for example ?
You may be able to simplify this by creating a subflow, so you only need to place one node into each ui tab, with data fed in via link nodes.
