Appearance - Colors¶
Allows for changing the Brand (header), Supporting, and Accent color for the header and a few other graphical elements in the application.
Theme Colors
| Color | Description of Use |
|---|---|
| Brand Color | Header bar background, sparing use in parts of the UI tied to branding. |
| Supporting Color | Utility color for selected states and other basic page elements, often the same as brand color. |
| Accent Color | Attention grabbing color for primary button, areas of interest, calls-to-actions, etc. |
Dark / Light Mode Theme (BETA)
Allows setting a Light or Dark mode as the default theme.
Navigation Colors
| Color | Description of Use |
|---|---|
| Primary Navigation Background Color | Main Side Navigation Background Color. |
| Primary Navigation Selected Color | Main Side Navigation Selected Color. |
| Sub-Navigation Background Color | Sub-Navigation Background Color. |
| Sub-Navigation Selected Color | Sub-Navigation Selected Color |
Side Navigation Hover Display Name
The default for the Asset Grid / Fleet view on the left hand navigation is Fleet. This can be configured to any other String, such as 'Groups', or 'Assets', or 'Equipment'.
Asset and Device Icons¶
ExoSense uses icons for assets and devices anywhere there are lists or tables of these items. Knowing that there are very different types of assets being used, administrators can set the default icons used for assets and also for devices.
When creating or editing an asset, a different icon can be selected for each asset.
Asset Map Markers
Administrators may choose the style of markers used on Maps for Asset locations. When Name or Icon and Name are used, a setting for how long asset names are trimmed (when they do not fit in the available space) is also an option for assets with uniqueness in naming at the beginning or end.
Map with Name & Icon Marker
Map with Icon Marker
Page Export Options¶
When the Export Menu feature is enabled, the theme can control which export options are available to users. The export menu is available on dashboards, asset grid view, conditions, and maintenance work orders and typically found 'Export Menu' icon in the current view's header.
See specific pages for export details.
| Export Method | Description |
|---|---|
| The PDF export option allows exporting the view a single continuous view into a PDF file, which will be downloaded to your computer via your browser. You can choose in PDF mode to use page breaks and adjust the resolution. | |
| Image | The Image export options exports the current view as a single continuous image (.jpg). Image quality is adjustable as an option. |
| This will bring up the print dialog for your browser and computer. | |
| CSV | The CSV export will generate a single CSV fil based on the data currently in the view. Not available for all types of page views. |
| JSON | The JSON export will generate a file that contains the information in JSON format |
QR Code Customization¶
This allows for customizing QR codes in ExoSense, typically when an external application is expected to be used to scan the code to load the information. An example use case would be loading Work Orders in a Tablet/Phone or XR goggles system, with either a full custom domain and/or with additional query parameters. This feature to allow configuration of these QR codes must be enabled in the Application Management feature controls first.
Note that if QR codes are not customized here, they will work using the specific ExoSense's domain and parameters, linking to that object (e.g. a Work Order) back into the ExoSense application.
QR Codes supported
| QR Code | Description |
|---|---|
| Work Orders | Links to a specific Work Order in ExoSense. Default is |
Example
In this example, specifying a domain of https://myuniquedomainexample.com and query params of foo=1&bar=2 would result with a QR code like https://myuniquedomainexample.com?bar=2&foo=1&jobId=1a2ef1f1-ec9b-4a82-9003-22750ee0a512for a work order. The jobId parameter is always provided by ExoSense. )
