Bullet chart still supported in Splunk?

Hello,

I would like to use the "Bullet"-Chart of the jQuery Sparkline plugin from omnipotent.net/jquery.sparkline/#s-about in my Splunk Application. Is this still supported by default? If so, how could I use it? The documentation doesn't mention it anywhere...

(At this point i really wanted to include a link, but here the admins are to restrictive.. Sorry, guys, but that is really annoying!)

I think it might be great to indicate with a bullet chart, in which range this value is (especially for a report). Would be great if you might have any idea, how to do this?

Regards,

You can make bullet sparklines work, take a look at this sample dashboard:

<dashboard>
  <label>sparkline</label>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <table>
        <searchString>| stats count as sparkline | eval sparkline = "##__SPARKLINE__## 10 12 12 9 7" | makemv sparkline</searchString>
        <format type="sparkline" field="sparkline">
          <option name="type">bullet</option>
        </format>
      </table>
    </panel>
  </row>
</dashboard>

That'll produce this output in 6.1:
