Dashboards & Visualizations

Events in dashboard panels not wrapping

I've created a dashboard with several panels, each running different searches. The panels that use saved searches (searchName) wrap the events but will not use the paginators. The panels that use ad hoc searches (searchString) will paginate but will not wrap the events, forcing scrollbars on the panel. I need the results to be wrapped AND paginated, what is the best approach?

I believe the panels you are referring to are event panels that render events via the "EventsViewer" module. When specifying "EventsViewer" be sure to use "Paginator" and "HiddenSoftWrap" respectively:

<module name="Paginator">
  <param name="entityName">events</param>
  <param name="maxPages">10</param>
  <module name="LogReviewPopup"></module>
  <module name="HiddenSoftWrap">
    <param name="enable">True</param>
    <module name="EventsViewer">
      <param name="reportFieldLink">report_builder_format_report</param>
    </module>
  </module>
