  1. Custom logo watermark on charts

    Would be great to add a semi-transparent watermark to the corner or center of charts. Especially useful while screenshotting or embedding charts.

    If i can set a global config for watermarks across all charts, that would be great as well.

  2. Charts in source code

    We have different environments and creating the chart in a test environment and then deploying this dashboard/graph to another environment would be nice. Kinda like how you deal with deploying code to different environments from source code. Either have the option to link chart to another system like github, azure devops or similar git repos or have some kind of chart-library you can version control your charts to. In the live environment if a chart has been changed that broke something going back to the previous version would be really helpful.

  3. Drag and dropping fields doesn't work on chrome for me

    It would be nice if I didn't have to switch browsers every time I wanted to edit a chart

  4. Hide the Help Bubble Icon

    Option to hide or minimize help bubble icon.

    It is too big and blocks view when editing charts. Really annoying.

    Especially the case when trying to resize charts. The Bubble blocks the resize selector

  5. Allow to process totals

    Allow the charts to do calculations on the totals, say we fields: [currentAmount, renewedAmount]
    And the chart shows as totals [1000, 800]

    Then it should allow to show it as .80 (or 80% with formatting), at least in a Text, Number Chart.

    Keep in mind, since so far what I've researched we can only do calculations on each field then it would not be possible to add ratios per document.

  6. data source collection not shown if name is long

    If there are multiple collections with identical prefixes longer than 20 or so characters, it's not possible to tell them apart, making it impossible to see the data source collection

  8. Ability to customize label data

    When hovering over a data marker, I can see a box showing the X, Y values as well as the series. It would be quite useful to be able to include additional fields from the data source in that popup. In our case, we're plotting performance data for different commits, and while we do have the commit sha and can manually lookup information about the commit, it would be great to just have the commit message, author, and date at a glance in the charts.

  9. allow to sort series by a field that is not in a series

    We have one scenario in which we're adding a series for the purpose of using it in the 'sort by', specific example:
    A "Thing" goes trough "Stages" (e.g. Open Doing, Done, Closed). These Stages have a particular order. We'd like a chart of number of Things per Stages.

    Right now we the sort by options would only allow us to sort by the Value or the Stages (alphabetically). What we'd like is to be able to provide the order we define.

    There are two workarounds but are not ideal:
    1. We can do stack bars and put the Order value…

  10. When doing a lookup, sort the remote data source names

    Also, show the aliased remote data source name. If I have two data sources for the same collection, one with a pipeline filter, and the other without, and each named distinctly, show the manually entered name

  11. Add inclusive option for relative date filter

    Using a relative filter "from last 1 year" displays the last 365 days of data. If the dates are binned by month, that often means that the first month does not contain a full month's data.

    Please add an option for the relative filter to include complete data for the first bin.

  12. Editable color ordering and ability to create palette for all chart type

    Actually it looks like the colors are alphabetically ordered.
    It would be great if we can edit this behavior by occurrence of the field for example.

    It would be great to add other colors or at least a custom color palette where we can actually create a palette for each chart type

  14. Do not load filters values from database

    On large collections, loading filters potential values is very resources consuming. It would be great to not load all the data when displaying the filters.
    A button to toggle this behaviour would be great.

    Do not load graph before validation when editing.
    On large collections, loading graph is very resources consuming. It would be great to not load all the data at every configuration change.
    A button to toggle this behaviour would be great.

  16. Customize MongoDB Charts - Chart title

    Can we please have general customization option for chart title as well? Currently we are only allowed to edit the chart title but we cannot format it in anyway. It would be a good option to change the font color, size, style etc. for chart titles.

    Thanks for the suggestion Priyanka. We are currently adding the ability to add a description to a chart, which can include rich text and hyperlinks.

  17. Please let us save chart without closing

    Right now if I want to save my changes to a chart, I have to click "Save and Close". I would love an option to just save the changes, as I often change something and reload the code where I embed a chart.

  18. Visualize polygons and points on the same map

    Capability to visualize GeoJSON polygons and points from data collection on the same map view. That would allow user to create custom grid on a map.

    IMHO it'd be very helpful feature when working with geolocation helping to visualize things and also debug during development.

  19. Array of mixed types not working correctly

    When we have an array of type [String, number], the second item is considered as string and hence, not able to do aggregation like sum.

    For example, consider
    ```

    $project: {
      transposed: {
        $zip: {
          inputs: [["aaa","bbb"], [1, 2]]
        }
      }
    }
    

    I am not able to create a data table with transformed.0 in col1 and max(transformed.1) in col2

  20. Set a Custom Timezone for all Dates by Default

    Since mongo by default stores the dates in UTC timezone, whenever we have to create a chart based on the time, we need to always go to the customize section and change the timezone. It's a repetitive process and sometimes people forget, and end up exporting wrong data. (A major use-case for charts for us is also self-serve data export by non tech users)

    We can change the timezone using an aggregation pipeline, but that changes the data type itself from date to number (by splitting into day, month, hour etc); and then it's manual work in the chart UI…
