The Dashboard Editor is a point-and-click interface used to draw
all kinds of schematics and dashboards. Made of standard vector
graphic objects and dynamic symbols, the resulting dashboards can
then be loaded and connected to actual data at run time. This
editor is convenient for creating monitoring displays where the
symbols are manually positioned on the display and then connected
to their underlying real-world business objects. The Dashboard
Editor is an extendible tool that can be customized to meet
developers' needs. For details on how to use this tool, please
refer to Using the Dashboard Editor.
