The glint content type renders a glint file to produce a graphical view. Glint is Elixir's native vector graphics format. It is designed to be extremely compact to minimize network traffic and reduce memory requirements on low-end machines. Instructions on generating a glint file can be found in the Report Designer documentation.
This is useful for displaying fixed content and pre-rendered output. For example, a view could be based on a FileSystem DataSource to show a list of glint files. Selecting a file would load it and display it in another view, allowing quick creation of a customized interface to access pre-rendered reports.
Available datasources: None.
A glint file can be opened from the Perspective tab by right-clicking on the glint file and select Open Glint.
