- Steps for Resizing Elements on Canvas in Grafana:
- Add a Canvas Panel to Your Dashboard:
- Open Grafana and navigate to the dashboard where you want to add a Canvas panel.
- Click on the “+” button on the left sidebar to add a new panel.
- From the panel options, select “Canvas” (under Visualization).
-
Configure Canvas Settings:
• Once the Canvas panel is added, you will see a blank canvas where you can add elements.
• In the Canvas editor, go to the “Settings” section of the panel to configure the canvas size (e.g., width, height).
• This will define the canvas area in which you will position and resize elements.
-
Add an Element (e.g., Text, Shape, Image):
- In the Canvas editor, click the “+” button to add an element to the canvas.
- You can choose from several types of elements:
- Text (for adding static or dynamic text),
- Shapes (e.g., rectangles, circles),
- Images (e.g., logos or icons).
4. Set Element Size and Position:
- After adding an element, click on it to edit its properties.
- In the Element Configuration panel, you’ll find options to control the size (height, width) and position (X, Y).
- You can either input values manually or use “Scale” options to adjust the element’s size proportionally.
- Use the Scaling Options for Resizing:
- For resizing elements in proportional terms:
- The “Width” and “Height” fields let you define the size of the element.
- You can use percentage values or pixels for specific sizes.
- Scaling on Canvas :
- If you’re looking to scale the element dynamically, you can adjust its size using the “scale” option (depending on the element type).
- You can also control the “scale” via CSS or dynamic data to adjust it based on certain metrics or time ranges.
