Dashboards & Visualizations

Visualization behaving differently in different apps

Hi,

I have a timeline visualization as a panel for a dashboard. When I run the visualization as a standalone practice dashboard in the Search & Reporting app, it works as expected.

However, when I run the EXACT same query with the same visualization fomat, it doe not show the top of the timeline as required:

The query used in both dashboards is as follows:

<panel>
<viz type="event-timeline-viz.event-timeline-viz">
<search>
<query>index=fraud_glassbox sourcetype="gb:hit" SESSION_UUID="652a0e70-bfdf-11ec-9d96-005056bf9975"
| rename URL_PATH as label

| eval time_epoch = strptime('SESSION_TIMESTAMP', "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
| convert ctime(time_epoch) as hour_minute timeformat="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M"
| strcat hour_minute ":" SEQUENCE combo_time
| rename combo_time as start


| eval tooltip = label
| table label, start,tooltip</query>
<earliest>-7d</earliest>
<latest>now</latest>
<sampleRatio>1</sampleRatio>
</search>
<option name="drilldown">none</option>
<option name="event-timeline-viz.event-timeline-viz.backgroundColor">#ffffff</option>
<option name="event-timeline-viz.event-timeline-viz.eventColor">#d5ddf6</option>
<option name="event-timeline-viz.event-timeline-viz.maxZoom">3600000</option>
<option name="event-timeline-viz.event-timeline-viz.minZoom">60000</option>
<option name="event-timeline-viz.event-timeline-viz.orientation">top</option>
<option name="event-timeline-viz.event-timeline-viz.stack">true</option>
<option name="event-timeline-viz.event-timeline-viz.tokenAllVisible">tok_et_all_visible</option>
<option name="event-timeline-viz.event-timeline-viz.tokenData">tok_et_data</option>
<option name="event-timeline-viz.event-timeline-viz.tokenEnd">tok_et_end</option>
<option name="event-timeline-viz.event-timeline-viz.tokenLabel">tok_et_label</option>
<option name="event-timeline-viz.event-timeline-viz.tokenStart">tok_et_start</option>
<option name="event-timeline-viz.event-timeline-viz.tooltipDateFormat">DD-MMM-YYYY</option>
<option name="event-timeline-viz.event-timeline-viz.tooltipTimeFormat">h:mm:ss A</option>
<option name="height">346</option>
<option name="trellis.enabled">0</option>
<option name="trellis.scales.shared">1</option>
<option name="trellis.size">medium</option>
</viz>
</panel>



What may be the reason for this?


Thanks,
Patrick

What version of app (1.71 is latest). Have you tried increasing height in the one that doesn't show the heading?

Other than that - don't know.

How  would I increase the height?
