+=== Customize time ranges
+
+You can configure each visualization, saved search, and map on your dashboard
+for a specific time range. For example, you might want one visualization to show
+the monthly trend for CPU usage and another to show the current CPU usage.   
+
+From the panel menu, select *Customize time range* to expose a time filter 
+dedicated to that panel. Panels that are not restricted by a specific 
+time range are controlled by the
+global time filter.
