Adding additional dimensions to the Scatter Map widget tooltip
Adding additional dimensions to the Scatter Map widget tooltip Additional dimensions can be added to the hover tooltip of the Scatter Map widget type, beyond the default limit of three, to include more information from other dimensions about a location in a Scatter Map widget. This can be accomplished by using a combination of the widget's before query event to add additional dimension data for the hover tooltips and the before datapoint tooltip event to incorporate these dimensions into the tooltip. This method of modifying the query using the "beforequery" event can also be applied to all other widget types // Add extra parameters to be used in tooltips by modifying query widget.on('beforequery', function (se, ev) { // Initial number of widget metadata panels excluding filter panel widget.initialPanelSizeExcludingFilterPanel = ev.query.metadata.filter((panel) => { return panel.panel !== "scope" }).length; // Extra dimensions to show in tooltip, should return a single result, include as many as needed, just add to array // Jaql Objects can be copied from other widgets from the prism.activeWidget.metadata.panels via the browser console // Modify JAQL as needed, title of JAQL is used in tooltip and can be modified to any string widget.extraDimensionJAQL = [ { "jaql": { "table": "Category", "column": "Category ID", "dim": "[Category.Category ID]", "datatype": "numeric", "merged": true, "agg": "count", "title": "Unique Category ID" } }, { "jaql": { "table": "Country", "column": "Country ID", "dim": "[Country.Country ID]", "datatype": "numeric", "merged": true, "agg": "count", "title": "Unique Country ID" } }, ] // Add to default widget query the extra dimensions to be used in tooltips ev.query.metadata = ev.query.metadata.concat(widget.extraDimensionJAQL) }); // Add extra dimensions added with beforequery object to ScatterMap tooltip widget.on("beforedatapointtooltip", (event, params) => { // Convert query results to include only the additional dimensions, and formatted for tooltip template var onlyAdditionalDimensions = widget.queryResult.$$rows.map((withoutDefaultDimensionOnlyAdditional) => { // Remove the default dimensions, first part of row result array var withoutDefaultDimensionOnlyAdditional = withoutDefaultDimensionOnlyAdditional.slice(widget.initialPanelSizeExcludingFilterPanel) // Format for tooltip template, include title from JAQL var extraDimensionObj = withoutDefaultDimensionOnlyAdditional.map((extraDimensionValue, index) => { // Use extraDimensionJAQL for label in tooltip return { "text": extraDimensionValue.text, "title": widget.extraDimensionJAQL[index].jaql.title } }) return extraDimensionObj }); // Object to store extra dimensions params.context.marker.extraDimension = {}; // Use matching queryIndex for tooltip of additional dimensions params.context.marker.extraDimension.arr = onlyAdditionalDimensions[params.context.marker.queryIndex]; // Template for tooltip, modify as needed params.template = ` <div class='geo-text'>{{ model.marker.name }}</div> <div class='measure-holder' data-ng-if='model.measuresMetadata.sizeTitle'> <div class='measure-title slf-text-secondary'>{{ model.measuresMetadata.sizeTitle }}:</div> <div class='measure-value'>{{ model.marker.sizeObj.text }}</div> </div> <div class='measure-holder' data-ng-if='model.measuresMetadata.colorTitle'> <div class='measure-title slf-text-secondary'>{{ model.measuresMetadata.colorTitle }}:</div> <div class='measure-value'>{{ model.marker.colorObj.text }}</div> </div> <div class='measure-holder details-measure-holder' data-ng-if='model.measuresMetadata.detailsTitle'> <div class='measure-title slf-text-secondary'>{{ model.measuresMetadata.detailsTitle }}:</div> <div class='measure-value' data-ng-if="!model.marker.detailsObj.arr">{{ model.marker.detailsObj.text }}</div> <div class="details-wait" data-ng-if="model.marker.detailsObj.pendingDetails"></div> <div data-ng-if="model.marker.detailsObj.arr"> <div class="details-value" data-ng-repeat="a in model.marker.detailsObj.arr">{{a.text}}</div> <div class="details-counter" data-ng-if="model.marker.detailsObj.hasMore"> <div class="details-counter">...</div> <div class="details-counter"> {{'smap.ttip.firstres'|translate:(args={count:model.marker.detailsObj.arr.length})}}</div> </div> </div> </div> <div data-ng-if="model.marker.extraDimension.arr"> <div data-ng-if='model.measuresMetadata.colorTitle'> <div class='measure-holder' data-ng-repeat="a in model.marker.extraDimension.arr"> <div class='measure-title slf-text-secondary'>{{a.title}}:</div> <div class="measure-value extra-dimension-value">{{a.text}}</div> </div> </div> </div>`; }); The JAQL can be changed to any valid JAQL object, and the tooltip template can also be further modified.
Does Your Project Have A Timeline? Planning For And Defining Success
Timelines are a key component of any dashboard implementation. Considering the available time is vital to establishing reasonable goals and how to best prioritize tasks. More importantly, adoption improves when projects show fast results instead of dragging on endlessly. Planning a roadmap for implementation can produce a successful integration for you and your team.Update and add new Highcharts modules for use in Sisense plugins
Update and add new Highcharts modules for use in Sisense plugins The JavaScript library framework Highcharts is natively included in Sisense and is utilized in many native Sisense widgets as well as in numerous Sisense plugins. Although Sisense typically does not alter the Sisense Highcharts library version with every release, the versions of Highcharts included in Sisense may change when upgrading to a new major version release. Highcharts can load additional chart types and other types of functionality via JS module files that contain code-adding features such as additional chart types, which can be used within plugins along with additional code to create additional widget types. If a plugin utilizes a Highcharts module, you can source the module directly in the "plugin.json" file's source parameter, as shown in this example: "source": [ "HighchartModule.js", ], To determine the current Highcharts version being used in your Sisense version, you can use the "Highcharts" command in the web console while viewing any page on your Sisense server. After identifying the current Highcharts version, you can find the corresponding module hosted on the Highcharts code hosting website using the following URL format: https://code.highcharts.com/${Highcharts_Version}/modules/${module_name}.js For example: https://code.highcharts.com/6.0.4/modules/heatmap.js You can save this module and upload it to the plugin folder or replace the older module JS file simply by copying and pasting the code directly. Be sure to update the "plugin.json" file to point to the new module file if the file name has changed or if this is the first time the module is included. Simply sourcing the module file in the "plugin.json" file is sufficient to load the module into Highcharts; no further code is required to load the module.Using Native Javascript Date Calculations To Modify Sisense Date Filters
Sisense natively supports various types of date filter functionalities. However, there are instances where a dynamically updating date filter is desired based on dynamically changing conditions such as the current date. Such a filter may not precisely align with the filters provided in the Sisense UI. One approach to achieve this custom behavior of a dynamically updating filter is through the use of dashboard or widget scripting.Customizing the Offset Size of Selected Categories in Sisense Pie Chart Widgets
In Sisense, pie chart widgets, including the various pie chart style options such as donut charts, are a common way to visualize data. By default, when a user selects a category within a pie chart, that slice "pops out" to highlight the selection. This article explains how to customize the offset size of selected categories in Sisense pie chart widgets by leveraging Highcharts settings of the widget using Sisense widget scripting capabilities.
