The Dashboard tab of the Datasheet Properties, New Datasheet, and
Datasheet Type Properties dialogs is used to define the charts displayed on the
datasheet's dashboard, and determine whether the data displayed on the charts
reflects the data currently displayed on the datasheet. You can also determine
whether users can display the other charts created for the datasheet from the
dashboard on the Dashboard tab. If you are creating or editing a datasheet that
is assigned to a datasheet type, you cannot edit any of the datasheet
properties on the Columns, Filters, Organize, Time Views, or Dashboard tabs on
the New Datasheet or Datasheet Properties page:
- Datasheet Name Type the name of the selected datasheet.
- Left Chart Select the chart you want to be displayed on the
left side of the datasheet's dashboard. The charts displayed in the chart list,
are the charts created for the datasheet in the Charts tab.
- Right Chart Select the chart you want to be displayed on the
right side of the datasheet's dashboard. The charts displayed in the chart
list, are the charts created for the datasheet in the Charts tab.
- Synchronize with datasheet Select the Synchronize with
datasheet check box to have the data displayed in the selected chart reflect
the data displayed in the datasheet. For example, if a snapshot is selected on
the datasheet, the chart would display the data from the selected snapshot.
Clear the check box if you want the selected chart to only display live data
from the datasheet. When the Synchronize with datasheet check box is
cleared,the chart on the dashboard displays the data from the snapshot selected
in the View chart using this data box in the New Chart or Chart Properties page
in the Charts tab.
- Allow users to change chart Select the Allow users to change
chart check box to allow users to view the other charts created for the
datasheet on the dashboard. If this check box is selected the user can select
one of the datasheet's other charts from the chart list on the dashboard. Clear
the check box if you only want the chart you selected from the LeftChart or
Right Chart chart list to be displayed on the dashboard for the datasheet.
