I have a huge data set and that need to be filtered owner-wise in my bar/pie chart. However, I do not see any filter option available. Please help me if someone is aware of this.
Vramesh,
Without seeing your data structure and intended outcome it's harder for us to provide guidance or solutions. In general, the chart widget needs a data structure that is already summarized or aggregated and in a form of a table. Once you have the table, you can chart and then your viewers while viewing the chart can filter the view by clicking on any legend items (see example table below). You can summarize/filter your huge data set in a Sheet (via formulas, vlookup, cell links) or via a Report. Then you can target either the table in the sheet as your data source for the chart or target a Report and specific columns. Hope this helps.

I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted.

Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
When i try to send or print the timeline view instead of showing the progression bars like they do on the screen it only send the data entered and not a graph type view to print. Is there a way to do this. I am using a mac platform if that helps.
