How to get single value representation on a rectangle I have seen many dashboard but don't know how to do it
I am not talking about layout panel but a rectangle and number on top of it which changes color with value
I am using advanced XML without side view util

Hi nikhilmehra79,

You could use a rangemap which can be used to colorize results based on single value results and show it as gauge on a dashbord.

I once did a single value report on a dashboard, were the result was colorized based on its value like this:

alt text

To do this, you have to change/create an $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/YourApp/appserver/static/applications.css and add the following lines:

.SimpleResultsTable table.enableMouseover tr td.red_cell {
background-color:red;
color:#EEEEEE;
}

.SimpleResultsTable table.enableMouseover tr td.orange_cell {
background-color:orange;
}

.SimpleResultsTable table.enableMouseover tr td.yellow_cell {
background-color:yellow;
}

You should restart Splunk after this and clear your browsers cache! If it does not work, use your browsers debugging tools and see if the correct css is loading.

cheers, MuS

Try the proposed CSS first - it changes the background colour, giving your something like your image.
