Dashboards

Boldo now includes Dashboards, a new visualization type that composes several visualizations on a single grid. Each block in the grid is a resizable widget, and a dashboard can mix charts, views, diagrams, nested maps, single assets, and rich-text blocks.

Highlights

  • A new Dashboards section with its own catalog entry
  • Six widget types: Chart, View, Diagram, Nested map, Asset, and Text
  • A responsive twelve-column grid with drag-to-move and edge-to-resize
  • Two modes: read for consultation, edit for composition
  • Per-widget actions: refresh, open source, fullscreen, replace, rename, and delete
  • A dashboard-wide Refresh all action and a Save / Save as workflow with standard keyboard shortcuts

Widget types

Every widget reads from an item that already exists in Boldo:

  • Chart, View, Diagram, and Nested map widgets reference saved catalog items
  • The Asset widget focuses on a single asset and can display its properties, relations, process flow, or related diagram
  • The Text widget is a rich-text editor for titles, captions, and short explanations between widgets

Editing a widget does not change the source item. Refreshing a widget re-reads the current state of the source.

Compose and arrange

In edit mode, widgets can be moved by dragging their title bar and resized from any edge. The grid reflows automatically and adapts to narrower screens. Widgets can be renamed independently of their source item, so the same chart can carry different titles in different dashboards.

Access and space

Dashboards follow the same item model as other visualizations:

  • They live in the personal space or the organization space of the catalog
  • Organization dashboards can be restricted by access domains
  • Rename, duplicate, move, copy, and delete actions respect the usual item rights

Why this matters

Until now, each visualization type stood on its own. Dashboards let you assemble existing content around a question, such as an executive overview, a domain review, or a reporting page, without duplicating data or rebuilding it in a new tool. The knowledge base remains the single source of truth, and dashboards provide the reading layer that brings several perspectives together.
