Hi

I am using Dasboard Design 4.1… I have to design dashboard labels as…on click it expands and again on click it colapse.

For Example…
My design is like this…


North         500         600
South         400         200
East           500          100

Now when i click any of the labels… it should expand and rest should go down like this…If i click North


North           500         600
Northa         250          200
Northb         250          300
South          400          200
East             500         100

Now if I click South… South should expand and North should colapse like this


North         500         600
South         400         200
Southa        150         50
Southb        250         150
East           500          100

I can use multiple Canvases and dynamic visibility. but I think it is not a good design as i have to replicate lots of components on each canvas…

Is there a better way to do it. Due to Security reasons I can not use Third Parth Componets.

Thanks

Unfortunately, this is really tricky.

If you are using BEX queries, you can use the hierarchy component.

If you have static lists of categories, then you can use the accordion component. However, you have to hard code your list of North, South, East, etc. It won’t update the top level categories dynamically.
