Adding a gauge

To add a gauge:

  1. Expand a view in the view list and click the view's Gauges folder.
  2. Click the Manage tab.
  3. Click New.
  4. In the Name box, specify a name for the gauge.
  5. Optionally, in the Description box, specify a description for the gauge.
  6. From the Style list, select a gauge style.
  7. Click OK.
  8. Click the Manage tab.
  9. From the Dimension list in the Members group, select a dimension.
  10. Select the Off-grid member check box to use the dimension's active, or off-grid, member. By using a dimension's active member, the gauge data changes and the gauge control updates whenever the active member in that dimension changes.
  11. Or, clear the Off-grid member check box and launch the Members group dialog box to open the Member Selection dialog box. Select a member in the current dimension for the gauge. By using this constant member, the gauge data will not change even when the active member in the dimension changes.
  12. Select the Use for title check box to use the off-grid member name as the title.
  13. Click Save Changes.
