Add a dashboard tracker after completing the dashboard

Hello everyone,

When you first create a dashboard, you are allowed to easily add trackers to the dashboard. But, after that, when I try to add other trackers again, the Tracker View Properties are not enabled. Of course, you can add it in the Customize Tracker View, but this is quite a hassle.
Can’t you activate the Tracker View Properties to easily add it?
Thanks in advance!

Once you customize the tracker view (inside the dashboard editor) you can no longer change the tracker view fields from the properties. Maybe if you do your customization to the whole dashboard using developer mode, instead of just customizing the tracker view? I never have good luck using customization from the dashboard menu. I always use the developer mode.
Good luck!

I would avoid ever doing the customization in the actual dashboard entry, because of that exact problem. Even it it’s only minor things, deploy the dashbaord to a menu, and do a proper customization there.

If you are doing that customization for a date range, I use a trick of making a second calculated field that has the same data as the original date field, then I can add both of those to the tracker for < and > and hide it on the grid. Then you don’t have to customize in the dashboard entry.
