Hi ​@Anna C the best way to create a slide layout would be using the share button in the top right hand corner of the dashboard. Here you will have the option to pull the dashboard out as a Power Point or as Google Slides:

Why is the insight “Highest Syndication” not available in the Unified Dashboard? Is there an equivalent to it?

In Unified Dashboards, will it be possible to have cross-channel widgets for owned social media accounts to reproduce the Measure cross-channel overview dashboard?

@Anna C the Product took feedback from customers to expand and modify the widget options.  The closest widget at this time would be Top Mentions but we will continue to add more 😊

 

Cross-Channel Templates & Paid, Earned and Owned Widgets are on our roadmap. Right now, we have widgets for your Owned social media accounts widgets you can use. Tagging our PM ​@Per Risberg for visibility.

Hi again! Is there a way to remove absolute values from the pie chart widget and only keep the percentage values?

Also, is it possible to show the current period, and not the previous period on the x-axis in this widget? It’s confusing…

Hi ​@Anna C - these are great functionality questions, keep them coming!  

 

Removing Absolute Values 


That’s a great idea, its not currently an option in the edit widget function. Our PM is on this thread as Cris added him so this is great for Per to see. Similarly - great ideas can be submitted at Product Ideas. If there are functionalities important to your workflow, you can submit the idea here, this is checked daily by our product team and they will let you know if this can be incorporated.  

 

 

Showing the Current Period 

  1. If  a widget is showing a previous and current period view you can select  the cog: 

     
  1.  Then select edit widget

     
  1. This will bring you to an editing window.  To remove the previous period you can update the ‘show evolution’ to ‘NO’. Please see screenshot below. Note there are other elements in the edit window that can be changed in this editing window.

Dear ​@Laura Stewart thank you for your answers!

Re:2 What I meant to say is that I would like to keep the comparison to the previous period, but I would like to see the dates of the current period on the x-axis. Otherwise, it looks like we’re looking at last week’s data.
