  • Before opening your old dashboards/BI apps with Designer 2.0, you need to migrate them to m mode with Design Studio 1.6.
  • Our extensions for Design Studio 1.6 will also run in Designer 2.0. When starting Lumira 2.0 Designer, please do not import our graphomate extension from SAP Design Studio 1.6. Instead we suggest using the versions specifically built for Designer 2.0.

Chartpicker-Component

Along with the charts, you get a chartpicker which can be installed as a separate component. The installation steps of the charts described below are therefore analogous to the chartpicker.
