Gauge Min-Max as context variable

Feature Request

Would be nice to set the Min/Max range for the Gauge Dial with context variables.

@Lars_Andersson, you actually can use context variables in those spots; however, when validating the input of the gauge min and max values, we resolve the templates you insert there against the currently set dashboard context.

For example, assuming you have:

  • A number variable called “min” whose current value is 0
  • A number variable called “max” whose current value is 100

You can define the gauge min and max values as {{ctx.min}} and {{ctx.max}} respectively.

But these cases would fail:

  • Referencing a context variable that does not exist
  • Referencing a non-number context variable
  • Referencing context variables whose current values resolve to a min greater than the max, or a max greater than the min
