Period and date range
The period and date range have different purposes. The period selects the data interval. The range selects the time span.
A rolling range moves forward automatically. The configuration text gives a 15-minute interval for getting the widget data again.
A fixed range uses selected dates. Read the range together with the time zone in Time settings.
Display options
Each widget type has its own display controls. Read them on the type's page under Widget types.
A tab name such as Trend · 24 h identifies that widget's purpose. Read its actual configuration for the current data selections.
