Edit Visuals
Edit visuals directly on a Composer dashboard or in the Visual Gallery. When you modify a visual from the Visual Gallery and save your changes, the changes are made to the visual in the Visual Gallery and everywhere the visual is used on dashboards.
To edit a visual, you must be logged in as a user belonging to a group with the privilege Administer Visuals enabled.
To edit a visual:
Select the visual on a dashboard or in the Visual Gallery. When selected on a dashboard, a blue border appears around the visual. If you select a visual with a streaming data source, the time bar (Data DVR) appears.
Depending on the edits you need to make, select an item on the visual drop-down menu (
) or one of the sidebars for the visual. You can also use the axes labels on the visual to change what is displayed and the context menu to visualize the data on your visual, adjust the settings, and more. Some of the options described here can be performed in the Visual Gallery, some only when editing the visual in a dashboard, and some in both.
