Certain widget types allow you to return and display data based on configuration carried out within the widget.

- Show target: This will display the target which was defined for each Measure
- Show previous sample: This will display the previous actual sample value before the latest for each Measure
- Show current value: This will display the latest actual sample value for each Measure
- Show difference value: This will display the difference between the latest and the previous actual sample values for each Measure
- Show direction indicator: This will display a graphical indicator of the direction of the latest actual sample value against the previous actual sample value against the target which has been defined for each Measure. If the direction is positive the indicator will be green, if it is negative or there is no change the indicator will be red. The arrow can be up or down for both positive and negative results depending on each Measure's target and if being above or below the target has been set as a positive or a negative outcome.
