A More Compound Chart

For charts that include non-normalized data (ie i.e data with base values which are either very dynamic or are widely separated) you can use both the left AND right-hand vertical axis to define separate ranges. Please keep in mind that depending on the range(s) being display this can become visually deceiving.

Chart Considerations

Creating or Editing a Chart

1. A Chart must exist before it can be used or added to a Dashboard. To create a new Chart from scratch, Click the blue "+" icon from the Charts screen (Views -> Chart).

2. Assign your Chart a Name - This must be unique; no two Charts can have the same Chart Name. Chart names should also not include spaces or special characters.

3. You can also provide a Description of your Chart. This will be displayed on the Charts View page, and also when adding a Chart to a Dashboard.
