Target Lines

Target Lines let you add lines to your chart to show goals or thresholds. To use Target Lines go to Widget Settings and toggle Target Lines on. Set a Label, this will appear in the legend.

Set a Value – you have two options:

• • Static Line: Type a number (e.g., 50). This line stays fixed.

  • Dynamic Line: Enter a field name from your dataset. The chart will use the value from the first row of that field. If the data updates, the line moves.

Target Lines work across many widget types and stay in place if you switch between widget types.

Repeating Widgets

Repeating Widgets allows you to create a new widget for every unique entry in the selected group field.

To create Repeatable Panels, toggle the Repeating Widgets under Widget settings.

In the Group Field dropdown, choose the fields on which you wish to create widgets.

Note:

• Repeatable Widgets are created for unique Group Fields only
• Only the repeated widgets are displayed and not the parent widget
• A maximum of 20 Repeatable Widgets can be created
• Repeatable Widgets are applicable for Group Fields of Text data type only.

Choose the Widget Width and Height from the dropdown. The values range from 3 to 24, with 12 taking up half the Dashboard space. This applies to all the repeatable Widgets.

Users can pass the {RepeatableGroup} tag in the visualization title to replace it with the Group Field value in every repeatable widget's title.

Note: Use this exact syntax "{RepeatableGroup}" do not replace RepeatableGroup with the filed name. 

Click Save.

Go back to the Dashboard to see your changes. You can see that Repeatable Widgets are created based on unique records in the group field. In this case, it is based on unique state names.

The Repeatable Widgets are replaced in the same position as the parent, and the rest are adjusted accordingly.

All the repeated Widgets are editable; users can query/visualize/transform/drilldown on them individually. All changes are reflected across all Repeatable Widgets.

Toggle off the Repeatable Widgets switch to come back to the original state.

Search Bar on Settings Area

Now, you can search any field on the search bar related to the settings area of your visualizations. The search bar will allow you to focus on the field you are searching for, and you can configure the value of that field directly.

For example, If you want to set/change the font size, font color, or header height, then you can type any field in the search bar, and it will suggest and fetch the related fields on your settings area panel.

 

Widget Field Customization

Users can add data values from the dataset to widget titles, descriptions, and footnotes. The custom tokens follow the same syntax used in custom HTML.

For example, To add data value to the widget footnote:

1. Navigate to the widget settings.
2. In the Footnote field, type the custom token in the format: {{fieldName:rowIndex}}
3. Click Save.
4. You can now see the changes in the widget footnote.
   

Note: Please note that data values are applied to the widget on the dashboard only.
