How to print a static value to a single element panel?

Hi there,

I am trying to use a single element panel as a key for understanding the other single element panels which contain some concatenated data. I just want to put the string "Count of Orders | Average Time | 95th Percentile of Time" inside this box. I have tried the following queries as the input:

fieldformat string = "Count of Orders | Average Time | 95th Percentile of Time"

eval string = "Count of Orders | Average Time | 95th Percentile of Time"

with <option name="field">string</option> to set the variable as the input.

I appreciate any help or comments!

You can put arbitrary strings into a single value by running this search inside the panel:

| stats count as mytext | eval mytext = "some arbitrary text for the single value panel"

As an entirely different approach, you can put text under a single value by setting the underLabel option, this might help as well.
