I have a dashboard with multiple graphs based on the WMI info from one system. I am putting the WMI info in a selected index and only the systems that I am monitoring with the specific WMI counters are in that index.

I would like to change all the searches in search graphs in the dashboard by selecting a host name from a pull down list.

I am on version 4.2.5 do I need to have a developer do this or do I have to wait till 4.3 comes out to get this kind of dashboard functions as a beginner.
