Chart gadget
To add a new chart gadget:
- Click Chart from the Gadget Wizard. A list of reports with charts is displayed.
- Select the chart or report title from the list of report charts. Use the Filter by field to narrow the list of charts. Filter by works on a "Begins with" basis.
- Click Next.
- Select a Default Action. Go To List Or Report displays an Action icon in the gadget header when the gadget is on the dashboard. When you click the Action icon, the report's Display Options and Search Criteria page is displayed.
- Select a Drill Down action. Run Report adds a link to the report chart, which runs the full report. Default search criteria are applied to the report if they exist. Note: To use the animation directly from the chart on the dashboard, ensure Default Action is set to None - otherwise the full report is displayed. You can also access the animation from the full report.
- Click Next.
- Add a name and description for the gadget.
- Click Finish.
Built-in animation means that you can watch charts grow as they are formed. You can also interact with charts once they are drawn. For example, highlighting slices and rotating pie charts. For more information on interacting with charts, see Running a report.
Some charts are displayed differently when you view your dashboard on iPad; a pyramid changes to a doughnut, and a funnel changes to a bar chart.
