Zoom in to Narrow the Time Frame

You can look more closely at the data points from a small range by using the zoom feature. The ability to "zoom in" on a time frame is available for views that contain trend (line) charts. The feature is not available for bar charts, tables, or gauges.

Follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to a dashboard page.
  2. (Optional) Change the time frame, if necessary.
  3. Select a view that contains a line chart.

    Note: You cannot zoom in on a bar chart, table, or gauge.

  4. Click and drag, using the mouse to select an area of the chart.

    Click and drag to select the time period where you want to focus.

    Select an area that spans at least 30 minutes. Black lines appear to indicate a valid selection.

    When you release the mouse button, the custom time period you selected is applied to the current view.

  5. (Optional) Click Undo, just below the view, to return to the previous time frame.

    The view is refreshed. The previous time period is now applied to the view.

  6. (Optional) Click Apply to Dashboard.

    The dashboard page is refreshed. The new time period is now applied to all views on the current dashboard page.
