JIRA Wallboard gadget not showing all options and can't start the slideshow

[Jay Barra]

Somehow I seem to only have the ability to view the current dashboard as a wallboard and I can't start the series I had set up. I do have the option to configure a wallboard slide show, but hitting done will not save the options. It is set at a cycle time of 30000 seconds and I can't change it.

Wallboard plugin 1.7.1
JIRA 5
Greenhopper 5.9

On a related note, how can I have several gadgets on top of one another. They seem to refuse to stack and will only show the very top one and then transition to the ones below. I thought they would have enough room to show at the same time. I wanted two columns; on the left several Project Progress bars, on the right I wanted updates. But only the very top project bar shows.

Changing the gadget border color solved the stacking issue, upgrading to a newer version seems to have resolved the other issue of starting/storing a sequence of wallboards

Lana,

See Jay Barra's answer. The widgets will not "Stack" within a single slide unless the widgets have been configured with unique colors.

Thank you!

I finally figured it out: gadgets with the same colour cycle, gadgets with different colours stack. Colour can be changed from widget's drop down menu.

Now my wallboad looks great, ready to radiate :)

i have the exact same issue...

can't start slideshow, cycle time now stuck at 30000 seconds

I am experiencing the same problem. Stacked dashboard widgets (4) are not shown altogether in wallboard view. Instead, they are displayed two per slide.

Is there a solution for this?

I am on Jira v5.2.5 + Greenhopper v6.1.3.1

Thanks

I was able to fix the stacking issue, the gadgets need to use different colored borders in a stack. Alternate blue and some other color or just using all different colors in a column fixes the stacking issue. I am still having the original problem though of not being able to start the show and can't change the cycle duration.

for reference, I'm using Atlassian JIRA (v4.4#649-r158309) & GreenHopper (v5.7.1)

Those look like what I am trying to show and I get the same thing that you are showing

Anyone have any solution to this stacking issue?

Here is what configured and running wall board look like (notice the 2 gadgets missing on the bottom right:
