Graphs 2 and Data Views Web Service
Reference Contents > Graphs 2 > Graphs 2 and Data Views Web Service
This window is where you can view server collections of Graphs and Data Views available for download from www.caliach.com support. On the To Server tab pane, you can contribute to the collections with designs of your own. The window can be opened from either the Graphs 2 Maintenance Toolbar or Data View Maintenance Toolbar by clicking on the 
Web tool.
The window has 2 tab panes.
From Server
The radio buttons control whether you view graphs or data views in the lists below.
Activities involved in retrieving material from the Caliach server.
The Manage Web Content is only available for Caliach staff to manage the web site.
To use the window, first choose from Graphs and Data Views using the radio buttons. Then click on the Get Data From Server. That will read from the server the available topics and designs and load them into the two lists. Click on a topic on the left to view the designs on the right. This process does not download the designs themselves, simply the indexes that are maintained on the server so it is quite fast.
If you want to view a specific design, select it and click on the View Selected Details button. This will download the design and open the Graphs 2 and Data Views Web Details Review window so you can see the raw XML design text, and in the case of a graph a picture example of it.
If you click on the View All Available Details then all designs will be downloaded in one go and stored so that with the window open, selecting any design will show in the details window.
If you want to download a particular design into your database select the design and click on the Save This Design button. This will download the design with all its component files and save them in your data file. Associated images and fonts will also be downloaded. See the Introduction to Graphs 2 topic for more details on this.
