Background sitemap / cancel-undo button

Open deku-m opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

First of all many thanks for the plugin, great job and congratz on bounty award. A long awaiting one finally created :)

Suggestions: As i dont know the future plans to expand the plugin.

Do you have plans to have a option to maybe add background upload? As for example a sitemap/drawing of the location/site. So that we can place the created dimension on it and also place the rack and match it on the drawing.

Might it be usefull to have a cancel and undo button, next to the save button. Now you just click somewhere in the menu to cancel it and to undo your last action perhaps?

Thanks for getting something like this created. I've been looking for something like this for a while now.

I would also like to see an option to upload our own background images.

Even if only temporary - I have an DWF that I could probably screen shot if necessary and I'd like to plot references real racks over the top of it.

It would be cool if you could upload a floor plan of a building as the background and drop a clickable child location box on the plan to navigate to that room sub location and its floorplan for instance.

Indeed - we use currently OpenDCIM , but looking into migration scenario's.

A typical site, with a floorplan. The background image is an imported plan/drawing. The racks have an overlay, created within the application, clickable and link to the rack or row views, which is a really convenient way of navigating. image

Rack colors change dynamically. Hovering over a rack shows tooltips with rack details. How this works is explained in more detail in https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=8p-tFL9tJxw
