Parameter Panel Widget
Available: Parameter Panel v1.137.0
This feature is available from LogScale v1.137
The Parameter Panel
widget is used for
moving parameters out of the top parameter panel and onto the dashboard
area.
By default, new parameters are added to the main panel at the top of the dashboard, which is ideal when all widgets use the same set of parameters.
However, in situations where you need parameters to affect only a
specific widget or a group of widgets, you can add a
Parameter Panel
. It can be moved freely
on the dashboard grid to be placed directly next to the target widgets.
Read more about using parameters in dashboards at Manage Dashboard Parameters.
