In some cases it may be easier for you to build your own chart rather than modifying one of the predefined charts. If you wish, create new panels to organize and display your custom charts. For a Standard Dashboard user, the charts you create are for your Dashboard only. Master and System Administrator users can create charts to be used by all Dashboard users.
