Gauges / Dashboards

[Jamsta1912]

Hello all,

Is there a way to control the way gauges are displayed on a dashboard?, in terms of things like:

1) Whether or not a key / legend is included.

2) Position / size of the title.

3) Size of the graph area relative to the overall size of the gauge. (I've noticed sometimes the charts are small and the gauge contains a lot of empty space).

Thanks

Jamsta.

Not sure how to do this ... there might be a better solution available but if not , try this ...

I am not sure if you know this but we can display ui page as a guage ... if you could find someway to have report included in ui page, that might do the trick for you ...

Thank you, I will explore this.

There are two solutions I can think of off the top of my head that might get you to where you want to go. Neither of which are incredibly simple unfortunately.

1. Creating custom charts

With this you could build up the custom charts and configure them. I assume things like size, scaling, legends, and all of that fun stuff are options that can be dictated.

2. Buy a third party reporting package

I'm not going to say one over another. There's a bunch out there from what I understand.

If someone else has a more elegant solution, I'm all ears, because I'd be incredibly interested in hearing about it as well.

Thank you. I will explore the first option. Unfortunately I think money will be involved in the second... and my budget is mostly zero!
