Dashboard Studio Trellis on Column chart: alternative ?

[harryvdtol]

Hello,

In Splunk i have a query that i use to show data with an xyseries.

The output should be displayed as a Column-chart in "in Dashboard Studio"

But when i save this dashboard i recieved this error

"Dashboard Studio only supports Trellis layout for single value visualizations."

This example query:

| makeresults
| eval Displayname="DSP10", Month="2505-06", duration=100
| append [
|  makeresults
|  eval Displayname="DSP10", Month="2505-07", duration=200 ]
| append [
|  makeresults
|  eval Displayname="DSP20", Month="2505-06", duration=50 ]
| append [
|  makeresults
| eval Displayname="DSP20", Month="2505-07", duration=90 ]
| table Month Displayname  duration
| xyseries  Month Displayname duration

Are there any other options to display this in Studio in a Trellis layout as Column Chart of a Line?

Regards,

Harry

Hey @harryvdtol 

Some good news - 

"Trellis layout support has been expanded to more visualizations. Now, in addition to single value visualizations, you can apply trellis layout to area, line, bar, and column charts." in Splunk Enterprise10.0 - Check out this blog for more info.

Dashboard Studio is still immature when it comes to some sophisticated features that are easy to do in Classic SimpleXML dashboards. If you are already hitting the limitations of DS, you should consider reimplementing in Classic (although you will lose some of the layout options which DS provides). There is a lot of support from the community and elsewhere for using some of the sophisticated techniques available to Classic dashboards. Unfortunately, there is not an easy migration path back from DS to Classic (and to be fair, there is only a limited migration from Classic to DS), so, beyond simple dashboards, you have to make a choice between dashboard types based on which features are most important to you and which you can live without. (Probably not the answer you wanted!)

Hi @harryvdtol 

Do you have a dynamic number of results that would prevent you from creating a series of Column charts? If the number is fixed I'd suggest creating a number of charts based on the same base search would be the best way to achieve this.

The only other thing I can think of is to use only the trend section of the single value chart, but that would be a line chart and not the same controls etc as a stadnard line chart would have.
