Widget improvements / Item value enhancment and new Trigger State widget

[oskare]

I must say the new "Item value" widget is a major improvement for dashboards very good addition.
I would love to see the widget improve some more ( below is almost describing what I do in Grafana)

Any change that these are on the to-do or roadmap at Zabbix.
Want to have as much native in Zabbix rather than mix dashboards between Zabbix and Grafana


Item value

A enhancement for Item value could be:
Editi foreground/text and background color's
Edit the colors based on values/thresholds (bypass pre-defined value mapping), have independent value-mapping possibly

Example:

• 0 = Empty = white background / Black text
• 1-4 = Low = white background / Black text
• 5-10 = Medium = white background / Red text
• <10 = High = Red background / white text

If we want more ideas (on loan from Grafana) ...picture attached.
Another feature is to embed a small historical graph at the bottom showing the item value changes.
Also Gauge presentation of values.

I would love to have a "Trigger state" widget as well.

=== Trigger state ===

A simple box similar to item value with editable text based on if trigger is Active or Not.
Would be nice to be able to edit foreground/Background color scheme based on active or not.
Trigger has 2-3x states inactive, active, recently active (optional)

Example:

Trigger Inactive
OK = white background / Black text

Trigger Active/Problem state
Alarm = white background / Red text

Trigger recently Active
OK = green background / white text

There are of course various other fields that can be included as done in the problem list.
Timestamps, ACK state, ACK text, Host name, Duration etc...

Some of what you write about is in roadmap https://www.zabbix.com/roadmap
It is better to send other wishes to ZBXNEXT https://support.zabbix.com/projects/ZBXNEXT

Thank you, I was looking for that sort of forum for feature requests but somehow never found it.
Will move my post there along with other feature requests and ideas.

You're welcome.
Unfortunately, the developers do not have enough resources to implement all the ideas.
And good ideas not implemented for years.
