Configuring Dashboard Filters

The Dashboard filter is used to additionally filter currently displayed data, letting you further focus the data view to suit current analysis purposes. The filter for each data view can be quickly selected, cleared, or reconfigured.

Each data view that can be displayed on the dashboard can be further customized by configuring the dashboard filter for the selected view. Click the Configure filter button on the Dashboard control toolbar to access the Configure Dashboard Filter dialog box. The dialog box that appears will correspond to the currently selected data view, and will list the corresponding filtering options.
