Nimbits SVG Diagram
You can create SVG drawings using your favorite drawing program and upload them to your account with special xml properties that tell Nimbits how you'd like them to behave with your data. You can link to other diagrams, see current values, and change colors based on alerts.
This is the official doc, please see the Nimbits Blog for a tutorial with examples.

Types of SVG Elements
Only certain types of SVG elements are checked for points and actions. They are listed below. This is certainly not meant to be a limitation, if a type of SVG Element you are using needs to have point data associated with it, please let us know so we can add support for it.
You may have several actions for a point entry. The action property tells nimbits what do do when a value changes, such as to turn a For example, a point action may be to go into an alarm state when it is idle, and when it is out of range. The svg for that example would be action=alarm,idle.
Adding Point Data
You can add a point to an SVG Object by adding a point=pointname property to the SVG node. Then you must add an action= property to tell Nimbits how it should work with that node. Available actions are listed here, and you can have more than one action on a node.
A full list of available actions
- alert - change the color to red if it is in an alert state.
- value - show the current value of the point if it is a text node.
- idle - turn red if the point's state is idle.
- onoff - turn Yellow if the point's value is greater than zero, turn black if it is zero.
Example: point=TempF value=alert,idle,value
Adding Diagrams
You can have an object link to another diagram by adding a diagram=diagramname property and action=self to target the current window, or action=blank to open a new window. You must supply an action or the behavior will not be processed.
