Dashboard Pie Chart

[Jeremy Lynde]

I want to display Issues on a Pie chart that contain certain components, and only those issues that contain thos components. For example: I have 9 components but only want to display results in the chart for issues containing components 1-4. I have tried using a filter for only those issues with those components, but some of those issues also contain other components. When I use the filter and then set the statistic type in the pie chart for Components, I get slices of pie for components I dont want to account for. I only want to see slices for components 1-4. Is this possible or would I have to remove any mention of components 5-9 from the issues I want tracked on the pie chart?

Hey Jeremy,

It would probably work better if your filter excludes the components you don't want to include.

Should be able to use "Component not in (component 5, component 6, ...)"

Hope this helps,

Tyler

Hi, I have tried that but it will remove issues that contain components 1-4 and 5-9. I want the metrics for all issues containing components 1-4 but dont want exclude those that contain both 1-4 and 5-9.

I don't think what you are looking for is possible in a pie chart.

If you don't exclude the components 5-9 they will be represented in the pie chart.

What metrics are you looking to show for those issues?

I thought that might be the case. I was just looking to get some acurate numbers in a visualy friendly way. Thanks for the assistance.

I want to do exactly the same thing as Jeremy. We also use multiple components per issue, e.g.,  'type of work', level of effort', ... 

It would be nice if we could customize the "statistic type" in the pie chart gadget so that the pie chart only displays 'type of work' components for instance
