    Custom Screens?

    In Zabbix 4.x, we were able to create custom screens. This allowed us to create one screen that showed bandwidth usage on our backbone circuits across multiple devices in our network. We also created screens for each customer that showed the usage on all of their services in our network across multiple devices... I don't see that capability in Zabbix 6.2. Is there another way to show graphs from multiple hosts on a single screen? It would not be convenient to have to look at each host individually to see the usage when some customers have 6 or more services across multiple devices and locations in our network

    Thanks!

    In Zabbix 6.0 and later, a function called Dashboard is an alternative function of the screen. You can create your own and customize it however you like.

      But could you clarify how I can achieve a similar experience with Dashboards? The closest dashboard type I found is 10 Graph prototype. Now the problems I have:
      1. Heigth of graphs is very small, even the date is not visible and the graphics themselves are practically straight lines:

      I don't understand what could I notice on such a graph... Is there any way to make graphs of normal height?

      2. Widget allows only to have 16 rows of graphics. It's not enough. After changes on the network, I need to scroll more then 200 ports to look for anomalies and it's very inconvenient to switch pages for that since you have to scroll down, then up to change page, wait for load, and repeat. Currently, I have 11 pages to switch and that's crazy. My browser perfectly loaded screens with the same number of graphics, so I don't understand why do we have a such limit?

      Screens were optimal. How can I have the same behavior with Dashboards?​

        Well, I found where this feature was removed: https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBXNEXT-5250 I've opened a bug report to see what developers will say https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBX-21628 This is obviously regression in functionality. Anyone with the same struggles, please, vote for the bug report.
