This feature allows you to export any view and its associated settings from any of your Lucidscale models. You can then import those views into any of your Lucidscale models. Each view file exported from Lucidscale models contains all rules and settings, such as: filters, conditional formatting rules, layout settings, and resource/line visibility settings.

Export a custom view

You can export all views in a Lucidscale model at once as a zip file containing JSON files, or export an individual view as a JSON file.

Export all views

Open a Lucidscale model for which you would like to export the custom view.
Click the three dot icon on the far right of the Views menu.
Select Export all view configurations.

This will export all views as a zip file. You will have to unzip into several view JSON files before importing into another Lucidscale model.

Export a specific view

Open a Lucidscale model for which you would like to export a specific view.
Select the dropdown arrow for the specific view you want to export from the Views menu.
Click Export configuration.

Import a custom view

To import a custom view to your Lucidscale model that you have previously exported, follow these steps:

Open a Lucidscale model for which you would like to import a custom view.
Click the three dot icon on the far right of the Views menu.
Select Import view configurations.
Select the JSON file(s) with the custom view(s) you wish to import into your model.

FAQ

Will global rules affect custom views?

No. In order to avoid global rules from affecting existing views, global rules will be transformed into view-specific rules when a view is imported.
