Display
A Display is a window or frame of your application's User Interface. A display can have multiple graphical elements in it. The elements of a display can be static, that is, they always show with the same appearance like a Title or an Image, or be dynamic like a gauge or a color status indicator.
Layout
Layouts allow the organization of the User Interface in frames or panels, acting as container for your Displays. For instance, a typical layout is composed by a Top Display that is always the same with navigation button, and an area below where different displays can be shown.
Process Screens
A Process Screen represent a process diagram. When resize the elements keep their relative position.
Dashboards
A dashboard is a visual representation of data that provides an overview of key performance indicators (KPIs) and other important information. It is typically used to monitor real-time data, keep an eye on the trends, and track progress toward specific goals. Dashboards often use charts, graphs, tables, and other visual elements to display data in a clear and concise manner. So, on this software framework, a Dashboard refers to a responsive and dynamic User Interface where the UI components are placed on a grid, according to the size of the Container window.
