Have something like a dynarange also available for Canvas frames would enable me to configure several objects (eg. KPIs) much quicker.
I could define a KPI layout which would be the same for all, but the metrics displayed in each individual KPI would be automatically controlled using elements from a Subset.
The KPIs could be created in horizontal direction and then be handled by the canvas so that if too many appear, they will just show up in the next row .
