| Show legend | Unmark this checkbox to hide the legend on the graph (marked by default). |
| Override host | Select a compatible widget or the dashboard as the data source for hosts. This parameter is not available when configuring the widget on a template dashboard. |
The legend of the graph consists of three sections:
- Items and their aggregated values
- Percentiles (if configured)
- Triggers (if any are associated with the displayed items)
If the height of the graph within the widget is insufficient, the legend may not be displayed or may be displayed only partially. Triggers and percentiles are hidden first, followed by the item legend. To display the full legend, increase the widget's vertical size.
No more than 3 trigger lines can be displayed. If there are more triggers then the triggers with lower severity are prioritized for display.
