Limitations of Pulse Graph

I'm trying to incorporate the pulse graph into my dashboard and was wondering if there is a workaround for some of the limitations that I have seen.

 

Are pulse graphs limited to only 1 data set?

 

Do slicers work?

 

The other pages on my dashboard has a specific corporate template and I see the pulse graph doesn't follow it. Is there a way to change it?

 

Is there a way to modify the min/max of the X and Y axis or is it automatic?

 

Also I seem to have an issue anytime I want to modify the data on the graph. The side panels for Visualizations doesn't always seem to populate and only displays the page views. 

 

Thanks for your help!

Hi @Turf03 

 

Are pulse graphs limited to only 1 data set?

Not quite understand thsi question, if you mean the one pulse chart is limited to 1 dataset, actually it depends, you can apply several dataset columns with has relationship among them into the visual.

 

Do slicers work?

Based on my test, slicer works.

 

The other pages on my dashboard has a specific corporate template and I see the pulse graph doesn't follow it. Is there a way to change it?

Do you mean you'd like to set the influence from others pages to pulse chart? did you enable the "Filters on all page"?

 

Is there a way to modify the min/max of the X and Y axis or is it automatic?

Basically, the X and Y is up to the range of X value and Y value, you can midify it in filter/slicer.

 

If you still can't manage it, you might consider providing your dummy pbix that would be helpful for us to investigate it further.
