How to determine widget type in Tivoli Dash User Interface.

Tivoli Monitoring User Interface (also called Dash) Offers a mechanism to add Tivoli widgets to the User Interface.

Widgets that can added are Gauge Widget, Analog, area/Bar/Line/Bubble/Column/List Chart amongst others.
 
Here I will talk about how to determine existing widget types on a certain UI where an earlier user would have already created widgets, and you have to decipher what widgets was used.

Take for example a Value Status Gauge was already added and named something else, which makes it hard -to find out when one tries to edit it.




Go to Edit mode in the UI, and Click on Widget and select "About"



Here it will tell the type of widget that was used -during creation - thereby giving you clues/leads to recreate it if required.
