Warning visual

Specification

Last update: 26 February 2025

v1.0.0.11

Purpose

Conditionally flag whether numeric series have reached certain levels, using Material Design svg icons. Tooltips as standard.

Functionality

Data

The data pane contains one data well, which can accept a maximum of one number series. This data well, for Number Series, is mandatory. Warning visual expects to treat this data as number and will throw an error with other data types.

Highlighting & Filtering

Clicking on Warning visual does nothing: no filtering or highlighting is possible.

Licence

The licence can only be sold via Microsoft AppSource marketplace: Viz Data does not sell direct.

Licenses are offered as monthly subscriptions: there are not currently annual payment options or one-off purchases. Contact us if you have a specific need.

A licence is required to use Warning when viewing a report. Editing Warning is free. Viewing works in Unsupported Environments where we suspend license checks to ensure unrestricted access. However, legally, we still request that you buy a license for those viewing in these environments.

  • Embedded - Publish To Web, PaaS embed
  • National/Regional clouds
  • RS Server (No planned support)
  • Exporting (PDF\PPT) using REST API

Warning visual works in both Desktop and Service. Since Desktop is constantly in Edit mode, Warning will always work there. License checks are initiated in Service within View Mode.

Purchases can only be made in Microsoft tax remitted countries to deploy in any Azure region. The list of tax remitted countries can be seen here.

Only the license buyer (owner) can assign licenses. If you are buying for other people, ensure you have the correct admin rights to manage the licenses you buy.

Upgrades, rights and refunds

You can get a full refund if you change your mind within 7 days.

You (or your organisation admin) can assign licenses to other regions as long as they are within the same tenant.

AppSource custom visuals will be automatically upgraded under the same license when a visual is updated by us.

Standard Power BI functionality

Power BI has automatic support to make visuals full screen & allow them to be deleted. These should all work as for standard visuals.

Hover

On hover, there is a tooltip that will display text for the appropriate level (High / Medium / Low / Below Low or Error). The text is set manually via the formatting pane.

Resize

Warning visual should always be full size, and this should happen immediately on resize of visual or viewport.
