In the Dashboard it is possible to gain additional functionality by using applications. You gain acess to theese via the "Object adder" but you have to be the owner of the Dashboard. Use "Ctrl + M" as a shortcut to this menu. You can see a picture of where to find the applications below.
Below you can see an example of when the object type "Machine status" is used together with the application "Code current stops". In this application it is possible to change the current stop reason for the machine. You can customize what is shown here in several different ways. Either with Balthzars own grid system to add more fields / data in the object or use the ojbects own settings menus. They are "Location and size", "Header and text" and "Other".
