 Description   

I have a number of screens containing up to 30 graphs, (all set as dynamic items) and a number of screens like that open concurrently. Over time, the browser gets more and more unresponsive. Sometimes i want screens to dynamically update and just as often i'd rather they didn't to minimise their impact on browser and system [performance. Disabling dynamic items in all of the screen graph definitions isn't desirable.

Would it be possible to provide something like a checkbox at the top of the page that allows the user to change the properties of all graphs in the screen to static or dynamic and back to defaults (since some screens might have a mix of dynamic/static items, i guess)l, regardless of how they're actually configured in the screen?

screen "dynamic item" does not affect refreshing/updating, though...

Graphs, when set up as dynamic items, do, though. I'm pretty far behind (2.0.7) the current release - is what i'm requesting a feature in a newer version?

Comment by richlv [ 2014 Jul 02 ]

no, dynamic item makes them manually changeable to a different host - see https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/2.2/manual/config/visualisation/screens#dynamic_elements .
anyway, this is a duplicate of ZBXNEXT-202, closing

Well, fancy that ... colour me informed.

OK, then - please provide a method, preferably a button in UI, to prevent selected screens from updating themselves. I tend to have 1-12 screens, each with 4-20 graphs open at a time and automatically updating this many screens/graphs can drive browser memory usage through the roof

thanks

that might be ZBXNEXT-202, although that issue is slightly unclear at this time
