Overview

 

Dashboard Items can be combined together into a group, allowing you to manage how they interact with other dashboard items- both in and outside the group.

 

For instance, a group could be used to isolate it’s members from outside Master Filter. Likewise, items within the group could be filtered by each other.

 

To create a group, complete the following:

 

1.Click Group from the toolbar
2.Drag-and-drop dashboard items into the group

 

From the group, each dashboard item is managed by clicking the item and configuring as appropriate.

 

 

Group Tools

 

Groups feature a specific set of design and data tools, available from the toolbar (some options are also available by right-clicking the chart).

 

All toolbar items feature tool tips which explain (in short) the core functionality of the toolbar option.

 

Data Tab

 

The Data Tab includes several options for data shaping.

 

•Master Filter - When enabled, items configured as Master Filters inside the group can filter items outside the group
•Ignore Master Filters - Ignore Master Filters from outside the group

 

Design Tab

 

Groups allow the following design options.

 

•Show Caption - Shows/Hides the caption (e.g. “Grid 1” displayed at the top left of the dashboard item).
•Edit Names - Used to configure display name for the Dashboard Item
