Description

Problem Statement

Filing on behalf of one of our existing users:

At the moment, this isn't possible directly in the widget.

To show percentages (for example, "iPhone = 35% of all spans"), the widget would need to know the total number of spans across every device. However, table widgets can only calculate values within each individual row, not across the entire table. Because of that, they can display the number of spans for each device, but they can't calculate what percentage of the overall total each device represents.

Solution Brainstorm

Should be able to create iPhone Distribution on table widgets

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named; begin by locating the table-widget implementation for Dashboards and clarifying how device distributions are represented. Done should be defined as table widgets supporting iOS and Android device distribution percentages, including the expected total and display behavior.
