Dashboard filter using output

I think what your thinking is you want to display the data in a device table, showing devices great than 50% CPU utilization.  From what I can see in a device table you can sort by device name and IP, but you can't sort using CPU utilization or any of the vital metrics. exclusion rules don't look like they are available either. 

I agree, I would say that at the very least every column should be able to be sorted in an ascending or descending order. To be fair, you cant sort / filter on the classic device table dashboard,, but you can build a top N widget to display what your looking for.

To follow the same pattern as the Classic Dashboards I was able to create a second widget adjacent to the device table and build a leaderboard bar chart showing just CPU info that shows the name of the device and the CPU consumption. I think you can get where your trying to go, but in a different way than you were thinking.
