If you use the file-based mode to customize the styles of your dashboards and widgets, or the entire application, you must manually start the compiling of the modified style files to apply your changes in MashZone NextGen.
If you have modified widget styles, you must compile the corresponding dashboard style to apply your settings.
In database mode, the styles are automatically compiled when you upload the modified style file.
Procedure
In file-based mode, the page lists all dashboard styles stored in the file system.
<MashZone NextGen installation\apache-tomcat\webapps\mashzone\hub\dashboard\assets\custom-look-and-feel\dashboard
You can only compile one style at a time. While compiling a style, all Compile buttons are disabled.
The selected styles are compiled.
Custom widgets
If you modify styles of a custom widget while the server is started, you must manually start the compiling of the corresponding styles. Compile the dashboard styles that you want the custom styles to contain, such as the default dashboard style. In database mode, click the Compile icon of the desired dashboard style.
