It would be nice to have the possibility to create containers for the dashboards like the container for the nodes or for templates (template group feature) to better organize dashboards when you have a lot of them.

Currently you can put one dashboard under another, so you can create empty dashboards instead of containers. I agree that it looks a bit strange though. I see two possible solutions: a) add special object type "dashboard container"; or b) automatically configure empty dashboard with child dashboards to work in "slide show" mode showing all dashboards below in a cycle.

In my opinion solution a) is preferable: it is more homogeneous to the other containers. BTW having a slide show feature can be another additional nice feature to be implemented

It is implemented for quite a while To create a slide show, create new dashboard, add element of type "Dashboard", and in properties of this element, add dashboards you want to display and delay between switches.

Ooops

Thank you for your support! I added empty dashboards as containers, even if is a bit strange, for the moment I solved my problem.

This is a very nice feature, I'm glad you made me discovering
May I suggest the adding of a pause/play button (top right, near the edit, save, refresh) to temporary pause the loop? This could be very helpful to focus on a specific dashboard in case of problems.

Pause, or better - add more time to the dashboards depending on a parameter, either fixed or variable (e.g. if map has warnings - add 5 secs, if criticals - add 10 secs etc).

I was experminenting with a large screen showing 8 maps as small boxes and one bix slidescreen rotating those 8 maps above. It would be better if we could for example take out maps without problems out of the rotation cycle (if map has no warnings/criticals - set 0 sec to the cycle sequence).

Would be really nice
