Title: Grid Widget "Flashes" on Autorefresh
Post by: jv_oz on 10 Apr 2017 07:10:19 PM
Hi all,

I am hoping you can help me with something regarding a dashboard to alert managers of problems at workcentres on a production line. The statii that are being reported on are literally 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 for each operation at each workcentre, where a 1 is everything is Ok and a 5 is that there is a critical problem. There is no other values being used.

There are somewhere between 1 and say a maximum of 10 operations being performed in a single workcentre at any one time. We need to be able to display the status of each operation within a workcentre simultaneously and have the dashboard refresh automatically.

I have a Grid style widget on a dashboard that is set to refresh every 15 seconds. When it refreshes it "flashes", which the users are complaining about.

There is an example of the widget attached.

What I am looking for is a method of stopping the flashing when it refreshes.

Thanks

JV
