    I am afraid your question is not clear to me. Would you please clarify your requirements in greater detail? A sample project demonstrating your goal will be very helpful.

      I'm sorry, i try to clarify.
      At the moment I realize tests to see what is the best option for me between winform application and MVC in server mode.
      In my head I have the idea how I will implement without big difficulty the dashboard in WinForm application.
      For my MVC application i have no idea how  implement the dashboard in server mode.
      Your documentation is not yet available.
      I hope you see my thought.

      The Dashboard Suite uses server mode in the same way in WinForm and ASP.NET/MVC frameworks. I recommend you start with a WinForms solution that will allow you to create dashboards dynamically using the DashboardDesigner control. Then, if necessary, you will be able to provide a WEB dashboard viewer which will work correctly with dashboards created using the DashboardDesigner control.
