Drill-Down

The built-in drill-down capability allows you to change the detail level of data displayed in dashboard items on the fly. To learn more about drill-down concepts common to all dashboard items, see the Drill-Down topic.

The Chart dashboard item supports drill down on argument or series values.

When drill down on arguments is enabled, you can click a series point to view a detail chart for the corresponding argument value.
