Introduction

This article explains how to import a Animated Liquid Fill Gauge from D3 as a plugin in Sisense.

Purpose/Benefits

The Animated Liquid Fill Gauge is provides user with the ability to spice up their Dashboard with an animated way of displaying progress. The plugin will display a value and fill the gauge based on the percentage from the Max value.

How to Install and Configure the plugin

Step 1 - Add The Plugin

Download the attachment and unzip the contents into your C:\Program Files\Sisense\PrismWeb\plugins\ folder. If you are using version 7.2 and higher unzip the contents into your C:\Program Files\Sisense\app\plugins\ folder. If the plugins folder doesn't exist, just create it. After those files have been unzipped there, you may also have to restart the web server. Now, when you create a new widget the Liquid Fill Gauge should show up in the list of options

Step 2 - Create The Gauge

On your dashboard, click the Create Widget button and select Advanced Configuration. Next, select the "Liquid Fill Gauge" plugin from the drop down list. For the Gauge you will need to specify the Value and the range (Min and Max values). For the below example, we are counting the number of Doctors and displaying a scale from 0 to 100. There plug-in also offer the following design option:

Wave Rise - Control if the wave should rise from 0 to it's full height, or start at it's full height
Wave Count Up - if true the displayed value counts up from 0 to it's final value upon loading. If false, the final value is displayed
Wave Animate - Controls if the wave scrolls or is static
Wave Count - The number of full waves per width of the wave circle (from 1 to 8)
Show Tooltip - show/hide tooltip

Hi Sanjoy, this is now working and you will be able to select Widget filter. Please make that you re-create the widget in order for the filter to kick-in. Meaning, delete any old Animated Gauge and then create new one. Best Ronen

Ronen: I love the way this looks! Is there a way to have the hover over display the goal (e.g. min/max values)?

Hi Ronen,

I modified the liquidFillGauge.js file to set ShowToolTip : true and I am not seeing the tool tip.

Also, I want to dynamically change the color of the liquid based on a value (e.g. when we aren't at goal). I was trying to do that with JavaScript on the widget and couldn't quite get the attributes that need to be changed.

Thanks for the help!

Very nice plugin!

Found 3 issues with it:
- The liquid gauge does not show in PDF Report Settings screen
- Error message when downloading as PDF (I was able to temporally fix it with a try catch in widget.js around "var gauge1 = loadLiquidFillGauge...")
- When you leave the "PDF Report Settings" screen all liquid gauge become pixelized on the dashboard
