Navigate among Multiple Dashboards or Indicators

After you open a second dashboard or indicator, the navigation controls appear below the menu bar.

Dashboard navigation is also available when you click View

Go To.

The navigation controls enable you to move backward and forward through the dashboards and indicators that you have opened. The down arrow displays a navigation history list. The list is not a recently visited list. Instead, the navigation history list records your flow of navigation. If you back track from an item, that item is no longer in the navigation history. For example, suppose that you view three dashboards in the following order: A, B, and C. Then you click the back arrow to view dashboard B again. Next, you open dashboard D. Dashboard C is no longer in the navigation history list. The navigation arrows cannot display dashboard C either. Dashboard C is no longer in the recorded navigation flow because you back-tracked from that dashboard.

Note: The navigation history list does not persist if you log off from the dashboard designer or if you leave the dashboard designer to use the dashboard portlet and then return to the dashboard designer. For links that persist, use the Favorites feature. For more information, see Working with Favorites.
