Visibility Property enhancement: "gone" element
The idea involves enhancing visibility property of objects by allowing the user to hide an object (through a flag) nately shifting all following ones upwards, just like in a standard css "display:none" property.
This need comes from several requests recieved in order to easily be able to edit a dashboard by choosing which graph to show according to a flag. Until now, despite somehow possibile, we are not able to get rid of the empty space left by the invisible object, hence making visibility feature useless for this purpose.
We strongly support this idea since being able to dynamically remove and object from the screen may hugely improve performance (the "gone" element will not be rendered at all) and flexibility (elements can shift around) of any report.
See linked images as a further example.
4 Panel with different KPI's graphs are shown on a screen.
According to visibility property by now, if KPI 2 is set invisibile through a flag, this is the result:
This is what we want to dynamically achieve:
