In my DataMiner system, we composed a graphical UI which will be used as main entry point for a portion of our operators. For this reason i would like to make this visual overview (located on a specific DataMiner view object in the system) accessible as "Application" under Apps in DataMiner Cube:
Would this be possible to configure and if yes, any directions on how to achieve this?
Hi,
I think it is possible:
- Have a protocol version that includes the <App> tag
Example: "<App type="Microsoft"/>"
- Have a protocol Visio file on that protocol that shows the desired visualization.
This is the "visual overview" view that you want to see
- Created elements of that protocol will be seen as an app and will show the correspondent Visio file, which should be the protocol Visio file.
It is possible in a Visio file to refer to another Visio file, which calls ’embedded Visio’.
You just need 1 shape which refers to that specific Visio, in this case to the View.
This should help:

Additional feedback: You can create a parameter in the protocol which holds the ID or the name of the View. Then, you can use that parameter (value) in the Visio.
Hi Matthias, thank you for the provided info. Usefull indeed when trying to get a visual overview of an element card as your application.
In my example however, i wanted to be able to register the visual overview of a view card as application. Would this be possible somehow?
