9. Display Information — Standard Cartesian

This is the final step of the standard Cartesian flow. You enter the information that determines how the widget will appear in the Cartography list and save it with Save.

On the left is the form, on the right is the live card preview.

Wizard route: /cartography/add/displayinfo

Prerequisite

Steps 1-8 of the standard Cartesian flow must be completed.

→ 08 — Card Design

1. Form Fields

Field Required Description Standard Cartesian Example
Name Yes Name the widget will appear with in the list and dashboards Line-3 Hourly Temperature Trend
Description No Short note explaining the widget's purpose Line 3 furnace exit temperature, hourly averages (Line)
Tags No Tags for filtering and search production, line3, temperature, trend
Target Folder Yes Cartography folder where the widget will be saved CARTOGRAPHY/Facility1/Production

Naming Recommendation for Standard Cartesian

Use the format <facility>_<line>_<metric>_<chart>:

  • Facility1_Line3_Temperature_Line
  • Facility2_Shift_Production_Column
  • Facility1_OEE_Trend_Spline

Tag Strategy

Use the same tags in Compass entries and Cartography widgets. Common tag sets for the Cartesian flow:

  • Chart type tag: line, column, bar, area, spline, step-line
  • Scenario tag: trend, comparison, shift, oee
  • Facility/line tag: facility1, line3, furnace1

2. Folder Selection

When you click the Target Folder field, the folder tree dialog opens. You can select from existing folders or create a new folder with Create New Folder.

Recommended folder structure for standard Cartesian widgets:

CARTOGRAPHY/
├── Facility 1/
│   ├── Production/    # Column / Bar / Line trends
│   ├── Quality/       # Line trends (deviation, defect rate)
│   ├── Energy/        # Area / Line consumption trends
│   └── SCADA/         # Step Line set points
├── Facility 2/
│   └── ...
└── General/
    └── KPI Trends/    # Cross-facility common Line trends

3. Saving

When you click the Save button at the top right:

  1. The widget is written to the database.
  2. The Cartography list is refreshed.
  3. CartographyInsertFlowState is reset.
  4. CartographyInsertController is removed from memory.
  5. You are returned to the /cartography/list route.

Success

If saving succeeds, you see your new Standard Cartesian widget in the Cartography list. This widget can now be added to Horizon or Atlas dashboards.

Save Error

If saving fails, the snackbar "Save failed: " appears. The issue is mostly:

  • Backend access error → Contact your system administrator.
  • A widget with the same name already exists → Change the name.
  • Unauthorized user → Check your login status.
