The Settings menu

Most global settings of Dashticz can be changed from the browser, in both Wizard and Custom mode. Click the cog in the topbar to open the Settings menu.

Choose a category, change the settings and press Save. Dashticz writes the changed settings to custom/CONFIG.js as config['...'] lines and reloads. Every setting corresponds to a config parameter described in Dashticz configuration; the small info icon next to a field shows a short explanation.

Theme

_images/theme.png
  • Dashticz Theme: Default, Modern Dark, Liquid Glass Blue, Liquid Glass Grey or White.

  • Background image: choose one of the images from img/ or img/custom/, or enter a path or URL.

  • Colors: the colors of the page and tile backgrounds, borders, buttons and texts. Each color has a color picker and an opacity slider.

  • Font size: the text size of the title bar, device titles, data and the last-update time.

  • Icon size: the size of icons and images, and the width of the icon column.

The colors and sizes are stored in custom/custom.css and override the selected theme. To change the text size or alignment of one single tile, use the Text options in its Device Config.

Updating Dashticz

The Info category contains the Update control. Choose the branch (Main for the stable version or Beta) and press Run update. When the update is complete, reload Dashticz to use the new version. The web server needs write access to the Dashticz folder for this; otherwise update from the command line (see Installation).
