## Mode: Starred Dashboards
## Dashboard List Options
The `starred` dashboard selection displays starred dashboards, up to the number specified in the `Limit Number to` field, in alphabetical order. On dashboard load, the dashlist panel will re-query the favorites to appear in dashboard list panel, always providing the most up to date results.
1. `Starred`: The starred dashboard selection displays starred dashboards in alphabetical order. On dashboard load, the dashlist panel will re-query the favorites to appear in dashboard list panel, always providing the most up to date results.
2. `Recently Viewed`: The recently viewed dashboard selection displays starred dashboards in alphabetical order. On dashboard load, the dashlist panel will re-query the favorites to appear in dashboard list panel, always providing the most up to date results.
3. `Search`: The search dashboard selection displays dashboards by search query or tag(s). On dashboard load, the dashlist panel will re-query the dashboard list, always providing the most up to date results.
4. `Show Headings`: When show headings is ticked the choosen list selection is shown as a heading.
5. `Max Items`: Max items set the maximum of items in a list.
6. `Query`: Here is where you enter your query you want to search by. Remember that you need you have the `Search` checkbox ticked.
7. `Tags`: Here is where you enter your tag(s) you want to search by. Remember that you need you have the `Search` checkbox ticked.

The singlestat panel has a normal query editor to allow you define your exact metric queries like many other Panels. Through the Options tab, you can access the Singlestat-specific functionality.
1. `Big Value`: Big Value refers to how we display the main stat for the Singlestat Panel. This is always a single value that is displayed in the Panel in between two strings, `Prefix` and `Suffix`. The single number is calculated by choosing a function (min,max,average,current,total) of your metric query. This functions reduces your query into a single numeric value.
2. `Font Size`: You can use this section to select the font size of the different texts in the Singlestat Panel, i.e. prefix, value and postfix.
3. `Values`: The Value fields let you set the function (min, max, average, current, total, first, delta, range) that your entire query is reduced into a single value with. You can also set the font size of the Value field and font-size (as a %) of the metric query that the Panel is configured with. This reduces the entire query into a single summary value that is displayed.
1. `Stats`: The Stats field let you set the function (min, max, average, current, total, first, delta, range) that your entire query is reduced into a single value with. This reduces the entire query into a single summary value that is displayed.
* `min` - The smallest value in the series
* `max` - The largest value in the series
* `avg` - The average of all the non-null values in the series

* `delta` - The total incremental increase (of a counter) in the series. An attempt is made to account for counter resets, but this will only be accurate for single instance metrics. Used to show total counter increase in time series.
* `diff` - The difference betwen 'current' (last value) and 'first'.
* `range` - The difference between 'min' and 'max'. Useful the show the range of change for a gauge.
4. `Prefix/Postfix`: The Prefix/Postfix fields let you define a custom label and font-size (as a %) to appear *before/after* the value. The `$__name` variable can be used here to use the series name or alias from the metric query.
5. `Units`: Units are appended to the the Singlestat within the panel, and will respect the color and threshold settings for the value.
6. `Decimals`: The Decimal field allows you to override the automatic decimal precision, and set it explicitly.

### Coloring
The coloring options of the Singlestat Panel config allow you to dynamically change the colors based on the Singlestat value.
1. `Background`: This checkbox applies the configured thresholds and colors to the entirety of the Singlestat Panel background.
2. `Value`: This checkbox applies the configured thresholds and colors to the summary stat.
3. `Thresholds`: Change the background and value colors dynamically within the panel, depending on the Singlestat value. The threshold field accepts **2 comma-separated** values which represent 3 ranges that correspond to the three colors directly to the right. For example: if the thresholds are 70, 90 then the first color represents <70,thesecondcolorrepresentsbetween70and90andthethirdcolorrepresents> 90.
4. `Colors`: Select a color and opacity

5. `Invert order`: This link toggles the threshold color order.</br>For example: Green, Orange, Red (<imgclass="no-shadow"src="/img/docs(v1/gyr.png">) will become Red, Orange, Green (<imgclass="no-shadow"src="/img/docs/v1/ryg.png">).
### Spark Lines
Sparklines are a great way of seeing the historical data related to the summary stat, providing valuable context at a glance. Sparklines act differently than traditional Graph Panels and do not include x or y axis, coordinates, a legend, or ability to interact with the graph.
1. `Show`: The show checkbox will toggle wether the gauge is shown in the panel. When unselected, only the Singlestat value will appear.
2. `Min/Max`: This sets the start and end point for the gauge.
3. `Threshold Labels`: Check if you want to show the threshold labels. Thresholds are set in the color options.
4. `Threshold Markers`: Check if you want to have a second meter showing the thresholds.
### Value to text mapping
Value to text mapping allows you to translate the value of the summary stat into explicit text. The text will respect all styling, thresholds and customization defined for the value. This can be useful to translate the number of the main Singlestat value into a context-specific human-readable word or message.

Grafana 2.5 introduced stricter checking for multiple-series on singlestat panels. In previous versions, the panel logic did not verify that only a single series was used, and instead, displayed the first series encountered. Depending on your data source, this could have lead to inconsistent data being shown and/or a general confusion about which metric was being displayed.
