votes

I have made multiple copies of dashboard for different reports to render. so url changes for each report in the browser and whole page needs to be refreshed.

Day before yesterday i came to know that any component can be refreshed [ Refresh all components of Pentaho CDE dashboard ]

I wanna know if i can use single pentaho dashboard to render different reports over single reporting component, using ajax calls by clicking different buttons/links?

I feel there should be some way arround this.

Could you attach screenshots of the multiple dashboards? It would be easier to analyze your goal. - mzy
@mzy please check the image, i have updated the post you can see the links on the left, there are reports links as well, for each report i have made new dashbaord which reloads the page, i want if i can call the reports via ajax using single dashboard for reports? browser url changes for each report. - shzyincu
Yes, now it is more understandable. Do you want the menu to be fixed, right? I know there is a way to make it fixed. You can go to marketplace and install plugin from Ivy components. There is a Ivy demo which source codes should help. Another approach which I have implemented is a dashboard where HTML divs (with CDE components) are showing/hiding depending on your JS context variable. Or you can attach onclick function which executes code: document.getElementById(divToHide).style.display = 'block' / 'none' - mzy
Shop Daily Dashboard and Daily Dashboard > CDE Layout tab screens would also help. - mzy
@mzy i have uploaded the new picture, my question is regarding the reports actually, see the links, each link is opened using seperate dashboard where i have used reporting component and assigned it rprt file. how to make single dashboard for REPORTS ONLY - shzyincu

Okay, after so many attempts, i have figured it out that i can use single prpt component and update the action on button/anchor click, and then update the prpt component.

I tried this: 

Dashboards.getComponent('render_prpt').action = "another_report";

Dashboards.getComponent('render_prpt').update();

and it worked :)
