Dashboard configuration

Yueh17

When I use the Dashboard, I find that the interface for my shortcuts is not working. Is there a way to make this box appear? Or should the boxes for other options like explorer, TTL, DDS, and Dataset appear or not? Thank you.

Could everyone met the issues before, and how could I solve it ! thanks!!

Hi @Yueh17,

This seems a weird behavior since the docks are not inherently closable (as seen in the screenshot, there's no way to toggle it manually from the dashboard). It might be some qt bug I guess.

A workaround is to reset the state of the dashboard by deleting the file artiq_dashboard_{server}_{port}.pyon.
For safety make sure you backup the original state file before deleting it.

To find the location of the file, from the command line:

python -c "from artiq.tools import get_user_config_dir; print(get_user_config_dir())"

Re-opening the dashboard will reset it to default state, hopefully with the shortcuts dock visible.
The dashboard will generate a new state file upon closing it.

Hope this helps. Please keep us posted.
