Dashboard - Dynamic Property Height

danillopavan

Hello all,

I would like to know if there is any way to implement a dynamic height for my elements on the Dashboard depending of their values. In my case I am using the element Horseshoe Meter custom app, and based on the value I would like to increase or decrease its height property value.

Thanks and regards,

Yes there is a way, though I've got to say changing the height of the Horseshoe Meter app sounds like a strange use-case (are you sure you aren't trying to hide the panel? if you are this would not be the right way to do this). Inside your <search> element you will need to add a <done> element which will then do a condition match on whatever value your meter is using (I will assume the field count from a stats command) and set a height token like so (notice also a default height as well):

    <panel>
      <viz type="horseshoe_meter_app.horseshoe_meter">
        <search>
          <query>your search|stats count</query>
          <done>
            <condition match=" $result.count$ > 300 ">
              <set token="hsheight">500</set>
            </condition>
            <condition>
              <set token="hsheight">300</set>
            </condition>
          </done>
        </search>
        <option name="drilldown">none</option>
        <option name="height">$hsheight$</option>
      </viz>
    </panel>
