Vizlib KPI Designer from insightsoftware is a layered approach to designing pixel-accurate dashboards for Qlik Sense. Its layering concept lets you combine charts, metrics, and icons, with full control over x and y positioning and the ability to overlap layers. You can also choose from a selection of preloaded templates to get started quickly.

Key features include:

  • Vizlib KPI Templates that let you create KPI objects quickly. To learn more about working with templates, see How to manage Vizlib templates.

  • A choice of eleven custom layers to build your own Vizlib KPI Designer object: Text, Icon, Icon Bar, Image, Line, and Master Item, Bar Chart, Line Chart, Bullet Chart, Gauge Chart, and Pie Chart.

  • Customization and formatting options for each layer, including styling and layout options.

  • Support for multiple actions to improve the user experience and interactivity, either at the layer level, with different actions on different layers, or as a global setting.

  • A list of existing presets to speed up your Vizlib KPI Designer object design process.

  • Pixel-accurate positioning of layers, including responsive design, with layer overlays that give you precise control over the final layout.

  • Dynamic visibility conditions to show or hide layers based on Qlik expressions or variables.
