Working with POVs in Dashboard 2.0

POV Settings

When your Dashboard 2.0 dashboard contains a global or local POV, changes to the POV are automatically applied. If you don't want to automatically apply changes, you can deselect auto-apply for the POV bar in the dashboard POV Settings menu. Click , and then click POV : Auto-Apply to deselect it.

Searching for POV Members

When working in Dashboard 2.0 dashboards, you can more easily search for new POV members in the dashboard's global or local POVs. To search, click a POV link, type the name of another member, and the search function will automatically filter to that member name. The search interface also displays a list of the most recently used members from which you can choose.

Note:

Valid intersections are supported for global and local POV bars. This means that Dashboard 2.0 complies with valid intersection rules by excluding invalid intersections from global and local POV bars.
