How to enlarge the size of a caption underneath a singe-value visualization

Hi dashboard-pro's,

I have a question about formatting the text you are able to add underneath the value of a single-value visualization. Also called the "caption".
I want to make it bigger in size, however I didn't get it to work with CSS.
Please kindly show me a way how to do it. I know that it was possible in the past. I'm using splunk in version 7.2.3.

I've already found this post by the ever-great @niketnilay , but apparently that way doesn't work anymore.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Regards,
horsefez

Hi @pyro_wood

Please try and let me know

<dashboard>
  <label>singlevalue</label>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <html>
       <style type="text/css">
       #test .under-label {
          font-size: 20px !important;
       }
       </style>
     </html>
      <single id="test">
        <search>
          <query>index=_internal | stats count as count</query>
          <earliest>$earliest$</earliest>
          <latest>$latest$</latest>

@pyro_wood the > sign strictly looks for specified nodes arranged in the same hierarchy in the <html> DOM element. You can either remove the > signs or reduce to specific root and leaf nodes in the CSS selector as per your need, the example provided by @vnravikumar does the second.

First step is to add ID to Splunk element ie. at <row>, <panel> or specific view level like in the following example it is at <single> value level.

Second step is to right click an element and get the CSS selector for specifi destination node, in this case <text> with class under-label

7.2 has alot of changes in the way <html> components are created in the Splunk Dashboards. So do use Browser Inspector to investigate and ensure whether correct CSS Override is being applied or not: https://answers.splunk.com/answers/590387/how-do-i-update-panel-color-in-splunk-using-css-1.html

Following is the updated CSS style without > sign which should work.

  <row>
    <panel>
      <html>
        <style>
          #mySingleValue svg g.single-value-under-label g.single-value-label g.under-label-group g.svg-label text.under-label{
               font-size: 150% !important;
               fill: black !important;
               font-weight: bold !important;
           }          
        </style>
      </html>
      <single id="mySingleValue">
        <search>
          <query>| makeresults
          | fields - _time
          | eval data=100
          </query>
        </search>
        <option name="rangeColors">["0x53a051","0x0877a6","0xf8be34","0xf1813f","0xdc4e41"]</option>
        <option name="underLabel">Test Under Label</option>
      </single>
    </panel>
  </row>
