Deleting a Chart

There are different methods that can be used for deleting a chart. Which one you use will depend on whether you want to delete the chart completely or just remove it from the dashboard. 

Method 1

This method will remove a cell from the dashboard, also removing the chart within it. The chart will remain in the Chart Library, meaning it can be used again. 

Click the ‘Chart Tools’ icon at the top right of the chart cell.

Click the ‘Remove Cell’ icon.

Open

Method 2

To remove a chart from the dashboard you can replace it with a different chart type. Please refer to Replace Chart From Library for full details. Alternatively, you can also use the ‘Create new chart’ icon and overwrite the existing chart with a completely new one, the existing chart will be placed back into the Chart Library.

Method 3

This method will remove the chart from the dashboard and the Chart Library. 

Click the ‘Edit chart’ icon.

Click the ‘Config’ icon next to the Chart Name.

At the bottom right of the screen, click the ‘Delete Chart’ button.

This method can be used with multiple charts (and also a single chart) and is used to either delete the charts permanently or to remove them from user access, meaning that they can be re-enabled later if required.

Click the Dashboard Configuration icon at the top-right of the dashboard.

Click ‘Category Access’.

If you know which category the chart sits in, click the Category Name on the left-hand side otherwise click ‘All’.

A list of either the charts in the selected Category or all charts in the dashboard will be displayed on the right-hand side of the screen.

Click either the ‘Delete’ icon to remove the charts permanently or the ‘Move’ icon to move them to a different category.
