Display components on multiple dashboard views
You can display a component on multiple views of a dashboard.
A component that is placed on multiple tabs can be used for filtering other components and for triggering selection events across multiple tabs. At the same time, the global placed component can be filtered and triggered by other components. If a global component is selected (for example, if you click a data point of a line chart), the selection is shown on all tabs on which the component is placed. The dependent filters and actions are triggered for the entire dashboard.
Note: The option is only available for dashboards that use the fixed grid work space.
On each tab the component has the same position, size, configuration and filter conditions etc., except the component layering, see Move components to front or back.
Procedure
1. Create a dashboard or open a dashboard in the dashboard editor.
2. Click a component inserted. The relevant properties dialog is displayed.
3. Click Select tabs and select the tabs on which the component should be placed.
To display a component on several views you have to add one or more tabs beforehand. See Add views in a dashboard for details.
The icon indicates that the component is displayed on several tabs.
4. To remove a component from a tab unselect the relevant tab in the Select tabs menu.
You can not remove a component from the currently activated tab. Switch to another tab before.
5. To delete a component click the Delete icon in the pop-up menu.
If you delete a component on a tab the same component will be deleted on all tabs.
The component is placed on several tabs and will be displayed on the corresponding dashboard views.
You can use a defined action in the dashboard view mode. See Open a dashboard in MashZone NextGen.
