StiDesigner() method to create the designer. After that, use StiViewer() method to create the viewer. Use createNewDashboard() and loadFile() methods to create new dashboard and load dashboard template. Finally, assign dashboard to the viewer:

</script>Now, let's create two buttons with actions:
<center>
<input type="button" id="openInDesignerButton" style="width: 20%" value="Edit in Designer" OnClick="openInDesigner();" />
<input type="button" id="openInViewerButton" style="width: 20%" value="Show in Viewer" OnClick="openInViewer();" />
</center>After that, create two blocks with viewer and designer:
<div id="viewerDiv">
<script>
viewer.renderHtml();
</script>
</div>
<div id="designerDiv">
<script>
openInViewerButton.style.display = 'none';
designerDiv.style.display = 'none';
designer.renderHtml();
</script>
</div>

<script>
function openInDesigner() {
openInDesignerButton.style.display = 'none';
openInViewerButton.style.display = 'block';
designer.report = viewer.report;
designerDiv.style.display = 'block';
viewerDiv.style.display = 'none';
}
function openInViewer() {
openInDesignerButton.style.display = 'block';
openInViewerButton.style.display = 'none';
viewer.report = designer.report;
designerDiv.style.display = 'none';
viewerDiv.style.display = 'block';
}
