Serial Chart - zoom to features

JaromHlebasko — Mon, 26 Feb 2018 23:17:31 GMT

I have been using the Operations Dashboard desktop software for quite some time. I'm now migrating over to the new version; however, it's a little more difficult to understand. What I am trying to do may not be possible in the online environment. I created a serial chart (bar graph) for a feature category such as "Maintenance" and the graph shows exactly what I want it to show separated out into categories but I'm trying to click on one of those categories in the chart and have it highlight/select and zoom to the data in the map. Is this a possibility? It is in the desktop version but I may not be looking in the right spot in the online version. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi Jarom,

Enabling an event in the serial chart element is not currently possible in the recent Operations Dashboard for ArcGIS release. This is on the enhancement list and a high priority for us. We are working on enabling this functionality in a future release!

Hope this helps,

Hi Derek‌,

Is there also a plan to add a "zoom to" action in the selectors (and not only filter the features)?

And a bit in the same direction: Is there a plan to inherit the symbology from the feature layer/Web map in the charts (as it is the case in the WAB infographic widget) See also Matt Flowerday‌'s comment in Sync Colors of Symbology & Graphs in Operations Dashboard

In general: Is there a public roadmap/blog post for planned Dashboard enhancements? This would be awesome to get an idea, what we can expect 😉

Thanks,

Annina

Hi Annina,

Apologies for the late reply, I was working at the EPC/Dev Summit conferences this week.

There is no Ops Dashboard road ahead presentation. I already shared the one ppt slide on what's coming in my previous post.

Hope this helps,

FYI,

Just to close this thread, the ability to trigger an action from a chart selection was added to Operations Dashboard for ArcGIS in the ArcGIS Online April 2018 update.

Derek,

For Categories from Grouped Values, how can we get the web map to behave like the chart?

Once the user selects a chart item like Active Map the web map should be able to pan, zoom, flash and filter.

Charts as the source of actions—Operations Dashboard for ArcGIS | ArcGIS

The way you configure a chart determines the actions that can be configured.

Configuration option	Possible action
Categories from Grouped Values	Filter
Categories from Features	Pan Zoom Flash Filter
Categories from Fields	Not applicable (selection is not possible)

Configuration option

Possible action

Categories from Grouped Values

Filter

Thank you,

Hi Bill,

Map actions are currently not supported in group-by charts. Sorry.

Can you please post an enhancement request on the ArcGIS Ideas site?

Hope this helps,

Derek,

Thank you for clarifying the chart options.

It turns out I was using a map service in the dashboard and it did not allow me to see the filter action for the webmap.

Talking with support we re-published the mxd to include a feature service and created a new dashboard to use just that feature service. (The dashboard webmap item did not allow us to change the source of the webmap)

Then, in the new dashboard's chart filter action we could apply the filter to the webmap (feature service).

It still does not have the zoom, flash, etc. but now it is much more useful to click the chart and only see that category displayed in the webmap.

Yes - I also need need a feature like this. If the Selectors could access the bookmarks in my web map, and "zoom to" the corresponding bookmark extent, that would be very helpful.

My web map has different areas of interest, and I have configured different Dashboard elements such as Indicators for these areas of interest.

The only way to elegantly display Indicator information (without having to create an Indicator for every single area of interest), is by using the Selectors.

The current problem is while info in the Indicators is updated with a Selector is clicked, the map extent doesn't/cannot change to match the user selection.

Hi David,

Apologies for the late reply. I have been out of the office on business travel the last several weeks.

Please post your enhancement request on the ArcGIS Ideas site, under Operations Dashboard for ArcGIS. In this way, we can assess the interest from the user community and it will help us prioritize the enhancement.
