Adding and setting up a view in a Jazz project dashboard

You can add and configure one or more widgets in your Jazz™ project dashboard to show one or more views. You can add any view that displays in My Views or Shared Views.

About this task

After you add the View widget to your dashboard, you can configure it to show whatever view you want to track. You can add as many View widgets to your dashboard as you need.

Procedure

  1. Create a widget in your dashboard.
    For steps, connect to the Rational Team Concert™ product documentation, Adding a widget.
    • In the Select Catalog field, select your Jazz team server.
    • In the Select Category field, select Engineering Lifecycle Management.
    • Under RELM View, click Add Widget.
    • If the Add Widget icon you clicked originally (in the upper right of the widget box) is light orange, click it again to view the widget in your dashboard.

    The RELM View widget is added, but it is empty.

  2. Configure the RELM View widget.
    1. In the RELM View bar, click the Menu icon and then choose Select > Settings.
    2. Select the view that you want to add to your dashboard.

      If the view you selected requires a parameter value, enter the value in the Parameter Value field or click the Open Selection Dialog icon to search for the value, such as a work item task number.

    3. Set the height of the box that the view resides in.

      You might need to change the default height value, depending on the view and zoom level you select.

    4. Set the zoom level, which controls the size of the view.

      You can also change the view size by using the slider and the Zoom to fit icon. To return the view to the original size, click the 100% icon.

    5. Change the title of the view by clicking the Menu icon and then choosing Select > Appearance. Optionally, you can also change the trim and background colors.
  3. Each time you open your personal dashboard for the first time in a session, you must authorize connection to the Rational® tools your view needs to show the appropriate artifacts.
