Problem (?) with Dynamic Screens

[MrKen]

When viewing any screen I can click on any graph and it will go to Graphs view and show me a nice big graph. As expected.

However, if I do the same with a Dynamic Screen item, nothing happens. Is this the expected behaviour?

Some more info:

On a screen with Dynamic Items/Graphs and the Host = Default, I can click on any graph and go to Graph view.
But, if I choose a host other than Default, then it will not change to Graph view.

Anybody having similar issues?

it looks like 'default' allows to click an element, but choosing any other provides new zoom functionality (try clicking & dragging).
i'm not sure what the best solution is here - maybe some hack that triggers zoom when drag is detected, but opens element is a single click is detected ?
------------
edit: ok, it actually already does that for non-dynamic items, so this seems to be a specific bug regarding dynamic items & a solution should be the same as it is there - element is opened if period, selected by dragging, is small enough. maybe you should report this on the tracker so that the issue is not lost.
------------
or maybe drag always with some small link besides each element to open it ?

whichever it is, the behaviour should be identical with default & any other host chosen.

Actually, the drag/zoom function works fine on these screens.
Just can't select a single graph from a screen, other than Default!

For now single graphs doesn't support "dynamic" items. That why it's doesn't open.

[richlv]

would it make sense to open the corresponding graph directly, or would it be better to wait until they support dynamic option ?

I think it will be much better when screens can be incorporated into host Templates, then this will be a problem of the past.

Opening the corresponding graph directly is fine for you and me, but isn't very convenient when giving a demo to my 'Cacti-loving' Boss, who seems to enjoy finding fault with Zabbix.

That suits me, for now!
