unable to convert any saved dashboard to advanced xml

[Cuyose]

when I save a search or chart as a dashboard it saves as a simple xml, and will not allow me to see the advanced xml. Even the search parameters are not displayed. Any suggestions?

have you tried adding showsource=t in the url

Sounds like dangerous (or at least kind of pointless) functionality to have people convert just with the click of a button.

correct. just paste it in,

you can always ask an enhancement request that someone will just add a button for it 🙂

Thanks, I did see this, however for some reason I guess I was expecting it to allow me to convert to advanced xml. It appears I need to copy the advanced xml then go into the view manager and past it into the xml to convert it?

I should mention Im trying to save the parmeter to show more jschart results, as they are being truncated in my search and I can not get them to display when invoking the dashboard.
