How to display dynamic values in the panel title?

Hi All,

Previously, I have asked a question titled as "How to display panels dynamically depends on selection?"
https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/How-to-display-panels-dynamically-depends-...  

The panels can be displayed dynamically by the user selection.

However, I need to display the title or the description according to the dymical selection.

That is, if the user select packet_size="32,40,128" from the filter.

Three panels will be displayed and I wish to display the title = "Packet size=xx", where xx represent the analyzed packet_size value.  

ex. Table 1 with title = "Packet size=32", Table 2 with title = "Packet size=40", Table 3 with title = "Packet size=128"


I refer to these history but I am unable to find a successful solution.

How do I display _time on dashboard panel's title field? 
Dynamic value display in the Panel Title? 
How do you display the date in a dashboard title? 

Does anyone know how to display the title or description with a variable in code or a value in filter selection?

Thank you so much.
