WorkingMode Designer

A WorkingMode enumeration value that specifies a working mode of the ASPxDashboard control.

Available values:

Name Description
Designer

The Web Dashboard acts as a Dashboard Designer and allows end users to create, edit, and save dashboards. You can switch to Viewer mode on the client side from this mode.

Viewer

The Web Dashboard acts as a Dashboard Viewer and allows you to display dashboards to end users. You can switch to Designer mode on the client side from this mode.

ViewerOnly

The Web Dashboard acts as a Dashboard Viewer without the capability to switch to Designer mode on the client side. In this mode, the Web Dashboard does not load the extensions required for designing dashboards.

Remarks

You can use the ASPxClientDashboard.SwitchToViewer/ASPxClientDashboard.SwitchToDesigner methods to switch between working modes of the ASPxDashboard on the client side.

In WorkingMode.Viewer mode, you can use API to modify dashboards from a storage on the client. The client-side API allows you to switch between the WorkingMode.Viewer and WorkingMode.Designer modes. For more information on how to protect dashboards stored on a server, see Security Considerations.
