How to adjust radial gauge numeric range within a dashboard?

Hello,

I want to alter the radial gauge (default is 100).

We expect about 5,000 log entries/lines per hour and I am curious how we can change the Radial Gauge threshold/value.

Also, how can we revert the direction? I.e.: 5,000 entries is in the green and 0 would be red (because we expect a large count = good/green).

Thanks!

I don't know how to reverse the direction but you can reverse the colors; this XML will do it:

    <option name="charting.axisLabelsX.majorLabelStyle.overflowMode">ellipsisNone</option>
    <option name="charting.axisLabelsX.majorLabelStyle.rotation">0</option>
    <option name="charting.axisTitleX.visibility">visible</option>
    <option name="charting.axisTitleY.visibility">visible</option>
    <option name="charting.axisTitleY2.visibility">visible</option>
    <option name="charting.axisX.scale">linear</option>
    <option name="charting.axisY.scale">linear</option>
    <option name="charting.axisY2.enabled">0</option>
    <option name="charting.axisY2.scale">inherit</option>
    <option name="charting.chart">radialGauge</option>
    <option name="charting.chart.bubbleMaximumSize">50</option>
    <option name="charting.chart.bubbleMinimumSize">10</option>
    <option name="charting.chart.bubbleSizeBy">area</option>
    <option name="charting.chart.nullValueMode">gaps</option>
    <option name="charting.chart.rangeValues">[0,"1000",2000,5000]</option>
    <option name="charting.chart.sliceCollapsingThreshold">0.01</option>
    <option name="charting.chart.stackMode">default</option>
    <option name="charting.chart.style">shiny</option>
    <option name="charting.drilldown">all</option>
    <option name="charting.gaugeColors">[0xBF3030,0xFFE800,0x84E900]</option>
    <option name="charting.layout.splitSeries">0</option>
    <option name="charting.legend.labelStyle.overflowMode">ellipsisMiddle</option>
    <option name="charting.legend.placement">right</option>

I also wanted to reference this help doc (took me a little while to find): https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/9.0.4/DashStudio/chartsSV

It outlines that if you want to change the default 100 for the radial max fill line, just enter a new maxValue option.

You can set the color ranges, as well as the colors, in the format editor for the radial gauge visualization: alt text

1: ![alt text]


Also note that in the recently released Splunk Enterprise (version 6.3) we've updated the Single Value display to use colors in a similar fashion as the gauges do. In addition you get the recent time as a sparkline and the recent trend as an arrow/change indicator:
