Dashboard Comments Field

Has anyone successfully added some sort of comments field functionality to a dashboard? For example, I have a dashboard that shows the health of a Citrix environment. However, it's "Critical" because a known set of servers are down, and will be down for a few days. It would be nice to add a note on the dashboard from a text input, so that users of the dashboard can know to ignore it.

Hi @Kendo213

You can use html label to scroll over on top of the dashboard saying the information.

<row>
    <html>
      <marquee behavior="scroll" direction="left"><h2 align="right">Server is down</h2></marquee>
    </html>
  </row>

So that when they open the dashboard, they will come to know this is the known issue.
