Hi Robert,
First, thank you for your help, it is greatly appreciated.
I have version 11.1.7 so I won't be able to use 2 of the suggestions.
- extension to create a tab
- https://community.ibm.com/accelerators/catalog/content/Button-and-Dropdown-action-widgets-for-dashboards-(11.2.0-and-above)
Drill-thru reports are very good, but for accessibility issues such as eye sight, the selection is so small.
Is there a mechanism to have a drill-thru button, or another method to drill thru without using the provided icon?
My other option may be to have to use a 'report' as my 'dashboard'.

Hi Mary,
I have no idea that this feature is also implemented in dashboards. but there are several workarounds:
- you can set up a drill-through to a report which has this accessibility feature set up
- you can use an extension to create a tab inside of a dashboard tab (https://community.ibm.com/accelerators/catalog/content/Present-additional-content-by-adding-a-Tabbed-Widget-(11.2.0-to-11.2.1)) one tab then contains the chart and the other the table. Unfortunately it's only accessible by an additional click.
- create list and achart just side-by-side
- there was once an action button extension available in the IBM Accelerator Catalog which I cannot find at the moment. It lets you record any action on your dashboard and give these pre-recorded actions as buttons to the user. One approach would be to record the switch between list and chart and let the user change the style with an action button.
