Making one of dashboard page default

Hi Experts,
Im using OBIEE 10.1.3.3 wherein i have dashboard which contains 4 pages. When i login to this Dashboard i should see 2nd page as default instead of 1st page. I dont want to reorder them by going to dashboard properties and making 2nd page as my first page and first page as my second page. Without affecting the order of pages , i should default navigate to second page when i open my dashboard`. Please let me know if you have possible solution for this.
Thanks

You might want to look up the use of the PORTALPATH system session variable. You can set it for each session.

How to Get My Dashboard as Default Page Instead of Home Page in OBIEE 11G?

Hello Gurus,
I have one requirement where i need to change default page to "My Dashboard" like what we had in OBIEE 10G ?
Rite-now in OBIEE 11G when any user logs in they are directed to "Home" Page, but i want to change the navigation to "My Dashboard" for all user..
I know the option to in My Account and Change the Default dashboard in Preferences , but it's manual way to do it for all end-users.
and the other is to create the PORTALPATH Variable and do it from RPD.
So I am looking to some other way there we can change the navigation path from system file itself...
Thanking You..

Hello David,
Thanks for reply.
Actually I am just concern abt the OBIEE Dashboard page, the link that u have mentioned is for Application Server, where we can manage the multiple Application Portals.
and it also doesn't come with Middleware that we are installing for OBIEE.
so i did get some useful information but not related to my question.
is there any place in EM(Enterprise Manager) or Console(Admin Console) from where we can manage the Default Portal for OBIEE Users?
Thanking You..

OBIEE 11g How to pass variable from one prompt to another prompt in dashboard page.

How to pass variable from one prompt to another prompt in dashboard page.
I have two prompt in dashboard page as below.
Reporttype
prompt: values(Accounting, Operational) Note: values stored as
presentation variable and they are not coming from table.
Date prompt values (Account_date, Operation_date)
Note:values are coming from dim_date table.
Now the task is When user select First
Prompt value “Accounting” Then in the
second prompt should display only Accounting_dates , if user select “operational”
and it should display only operation_dates in second prompt.
In order to solve this issue I made the
first prompt “Reporttype” values(Accounting, Operational) as presentation
values (custom specific values) and default presentation value is accounting.
In second prompt Date are coming from
dim_date table and I selected Sql results as shown below.
SELECT case when '@{Reporttype}'='Accounting'
then "Dates (Receipts)"."Acct Year"
else "Dates (Receipts)"."Ops
Year" End FROM "Receipts"
Issue: Presentation variable value is not
changing in sql when user select “operation” and second prompt always shows
acct year in second prompt.
For testing pupose I kept this presentation
variable in text object of dashboard and values are changing there, but not in
second prompt sql.
Please suggest the solution.

You will want to use the MoveClipLoader class (using its loadClip() and addListener() methods) rather than loadMovie so that you can wait for the file to load before you try to access anything in it. You can create an empty movieclip to load the swf into, and in that way the loaded file can be targeted using the empty movieclip instance name.

Collapse A Dashboard Page Section by Default

I have a few Page Prompts on my Dashboard Page where I saved the selections for "Everyone". I am looking for a way to collapse just the one section with the page prompts by default for "Everyone", so my users will not be tempted to change the prompt selections.
Does anyone have a working solution for this? Thank you!

Maybe this can help as a start:

Can we stack dashboard pages over one another

Hi All,
I am in OBIEE 11g v6.
Is there any way of stacking the pages on the dashboard if the no of pages are large. So for ex, I have 10 dashboard pages, the way it would be shown on the dashboard is
Page1|Page2|Page3|Page4|Page5|Page6|Page7|Page8|Page9|Page10
What I want is, like this,
Page1|Page2|Page3|Page4|Page5
Page6|Page7|Page8|Page9|Page10
so basically can I stack the page names in two rows? This is because when the no of page are large and can't fit in one screen, OBIEE 11g shows <<, >> at the end and then you would have to click on the >> to see the rest of the pages in the drop down. Can we avoid that?
Please help.
Thanks,
Ronny
If you notice, whenever the no of pages for a dashbaord are large. Let's say 15.

I need to insert Pages text file at end of a file; i.e., making one long document from several files. insert 'file' is not option in toolbar. how do i do this?

i need to insert a Pages text file at end of another file; in other words, i'm making one long file from several files. "insert file" is not an option in the toolbar, so how do i do this?

this method sounds like a PAIN but of course i have no choice but to try it. Why would Pages make such a simple thing so troublesome? in other programs, you simply click 'insert file'.
The only thing odd about Pages' Insert file is that it doesn't do its own format.
You obviously think that MsWord is "The Norm" but I found really odd things that it won't do. To the point I, like others here, can't be bothered trying to drive the Word square peg into the Mac round hole.
Mostly Pages works by drag and drop, I'm puzzled why that doesn't work with the thumbnails. But then there are quite a few oddities in every program. Pages is far from an exception.

How to create an iBOT which contains more than one dashboard page

Hi,
I want to create an iBOT which delivers the content in HTML or PDF format, but to contain more than one dashboard page. The idea is that I have several dashboards and I want to send by e-mail (by iBOT) most important pages from different dashboards.
Is it possible to send by a single e-mail different pages from different dashboards? I cannot find an way to accomplish this in the content of delivery in iBOT.
Thank you.

Hi,
Yes, I can add them to a briefing book, but the clients that will receive it by e-mail should have the briefing book reader in order to view the contents. Is there any way to send the briefing book in a PDF format?
Thank you.

How to send a dashboard page as selection with ibot

Hi,
I am trying to send a dashboard page via email, but with a previous selection I have done through prompts.
This is what I have done:
1.Created the selection and saved as "Generic"
2.Selection is saved in my user OBIUSER under /users/obiuser/_selections/hj0qcjg2ln00aro9
3.I copied "Generic" from the above folder to a folder XY under the SHARED folder where I have some other dashboard stored.
4.When I am in Delviery content , choose "select content" and browse in the XY folder, but I see only the dashboard pages and not the selection "Generic"
The reason, I have copied it, is that from the delivery content session, I can not see my user, but just the SHARED folder.
Do I maybe need to create a _selections folder under the SHARED one and save it there?
Thanks and Regards
Giuliano

The article describes that when you have a saved selection for a dashboard page and you set this saved selection as default, the iBot will use this saved selection to filter the data on the dashboard page.
So, unfortunately, there is no option to select the saved selection you want to use for a dashboard.

Reg: Dashboard page Name not getting displayed.

Hi
I have created a dashboard Dashboard1 and it has 5 different pages
pg1 thru pg5. I have 5 users USER1,USER2.USER3,USER4 and USER5.
I have assigned each page to a user and all the users have access to Dashboard1
i.e
USER1 pg1 of Dashboard1
USER2 pg2 of Dashboard1
USER3 pg3 of Dashboard1
USER4 pg4 of Dashboard1
USER5 pg5 of Dashboard1
The problem is name of the pages is not displayed once the dashboard is accessed after log on..The report attached to that page is displaying data, but page name on the tab is blank...
Could anybody help me with this information pls..
Thanks in Advance...

Hi,
When a single page is placed on the Dashboard it will not show the page name as it won't show any tab on the Dashboard. This is happening by default.
This case applies to your scenario as you restricting those pages among the users.
To just check, give the permissions to the user1 to view 2 dashboard pages instead of 1. Then you can able to see the page names on the tabs as 2 pages are on the Dashboard for that user.
I am also not aware of displaying the Page name when there is a single page on the dashboard...:(

Can see only one photo per page. How to revert to multiple images per page?

First noticed on my iMac and now on my Macbook (10.4.9)--I'm no longer seeing a month's worth of photos on a single page. Only one photo per page, sometimes with miniature ones in the top border. I thought it was simply an inadvertent click on by part and easily corrected. But all attempts on both computers and reading of Help index haven't led to restoration of an entire page of photos and elimination of the annoyance. I'm wondering now if something I downloaded might have altered iPhoto program itself, making it impossible to view large numbers of photos at the same time. Any suggestions appreciated.
Cap

Cap,
This view, with the one photo big and the thumbnail strip across the top, is what happens when you double-click a photo with "Edit in: Main Window" set in the Preferences. There should be a button visible that says either Done or Return, to exit edit mode and return you to the library. If you still see only one photo, use the size slider in the lower right corner to reduce the photo size and get more thumbnails on the page.
If, for some reason, you can't exit the edit mode, you may have a corrupt preference file. Quit iPhoto. Use the Finder to navigate to Macintosh HD/ Users/ (your user name)/ Library/ Preferences/ com.apple.iPhoto.plist and move that file to the Trash. Launch iPhoto, and you should be returned to the main viewing mode. You'll have to go in the Preferences and reset them to your liking.
Regards.

Opening Dashboard Page in New Window While Passing Prompt Values

Hi,
Currently it is not possible to open a dashboard page in a new window AND have the prompt values from a prior page pass to this page. I see one or the other can be accomplished but not both. Is there a way this can be acheived somehow or is there a workaround for this?

You are correct. The "Link or Image" object does not pass the dashboard prompt values, though it allows the destination dashboard to be opened up in a window.
Here is a workaround.
1) Place the link in a "Guided Nav. Link" object and set the destination dashboard and desired report. With the prompt set up correctly (i.e., dashboard scope, set to PV, destination report column filtered to receive the PV), the destination report will be filtered on the prompt as desired.
2) I noticed (and maybe this is why you wish the "new window"), there is no "return" link on the destination report. To fix this, in the destination dashboard, add a Text object to the dashboard. In the properties, paste the code below and make sure to check off "Contains HTML markup." This will produce a "Return" button on the dashboard.
<input type="button" value="Return" onclick="history.back();">
Now, when the user selects the prompt and clicks on the link, the prompt is passed to your second dashboard. When the user wishes to return, he/she can click on the "Return" button and return to the primary dashboard.
HTH,
