Option to Select Chart for Thumbnail or Re-order

Hi Wendy,

I hope all is well,

This sounds like an Idea is needed. Let me know your views on this. I look forward to your reply.

Hi Mark

If there is not currently a way to select a particular chart as a thumbnail, I would like this raised as an idea/change please. This would then get around the need to change the order in which charts are displayed in the Charts tab.

Thanks

Wendy

Hi Wendy,

Thank you for getting back, in order to help push this further can you provide some screen shots? this will help support the idea. I look forward to your reply.

Hi Mark

I have attached two images to demonstrate the change that is required.

• Report Thumbnail - this shows the thumbnail that is displayed for a report. This has been automatically selected for the report as it is the first chart and may not be the image that you want associated with the report
• Chart Thumbnails - shows the selection of charts available for the report. The first chart was created by the Smart Analysis function, whereas the third or fourth chart would be the chosen thumbnail.

Unless the first two charts are deleted and the Smart Analysis redone, the thumbnail image cannot be changed and will appear in the report list. A method of selecting the thumbnail to be shown to users in the report list is required.

Please let me know if you require any further information

regards

Wendy

Hi Wendy,

Thank you for clearing this up and providing further information. From what I can see you essentially want to have the choice of the different thumbnails for the different charts created, by defaults the thumbnail used for reports would be that of the one created first. Correct?

I have a possible options for this, although this would be part of the Idea we will be raising...

How about we have the option to be able to re-position the chart order within the Chart Editing section, this would then save the report with the first chart as the thumbnail. What's your views on this?

Hi Mark

I am happy with changing the order if it allows users to have the image of their choice as a thumbnail.

Hi Wendy,

Sounds good, I believe we have a good case here with enough information to raise an idea. I thinks we should propose the following:

• We would like the option of being able to add our own Thumbnail to reports built. As it stands we are limited on what we can do - as you can see we only have the option to "Clear Thumbnail"

How do you feel about this? This would then give you the option of being able to add any specific image to use as the thumbnail.

I look forward to your reply.

Hi Mark

I am happy with this approach as gives the user more control over what they see.
