I'm all for enhancing the dials. What I'd really really like is that the breakpoints on the colour ranges are dynamic, eg 100% is last year's YTD figure, with amber 80% of that, and green 120% of that. Having 2 needles is at least one solution.

It would be nice to also allow the gauge have thresh holds set by the corresponding report. Thus decreasing the level of maintainance needed

I had not thought of this previously but I see how it can really add more to the dashboard.

Second to the thresholds being set by report and not static. Static thresholds means gauges cannot be used for many data.
