origin/main: the ADR-0087 entrydashboard-widget-metric-family-multi-measure-refused(packages/spec/src/migrations/entries/semantic/18.…) says, in itsreplacement: "type: 'table'renders a row of measures, and the chart families (bar/line/area/combo) render one mark per measure — all of them keep the unboundedvaluesthey have always had."
Why the renderer, not the spec.
- The spec is not wrong here. Ruling D (
5643392537) judged the metric family wrong because a one-number tile cannot carry several numbers. It namedtableand the chart families as the correct "different visual" for several numbers, and the spec wrote that down. - A
tableof measures with no dimension is a standard visual: one totals row, as mainstream BI tools render it. Narrowing the spec would refuse the very remedy the ruling points authors to. - So this is declared ≠ delivered on objectui's side, and it closes where it is not delivered.
Why p3. This is the grade of objectui#8894, whose ruling D step 2 waits on this card. Every door accepts the widget, and the result drops measures behind a console warning.
Direction.
- Only a metric-family type is a tile by type. With no dimension and two or more measures:
table/pivotrenders one row carrying every measure;bar/line/area/comborender one mark per measure, with the category axis being the measures' labels.
- One measure and no dimension: unchanged, since nothing is dropped.
- Other non-metric types with no dimension and two or more measures (
pie/donut/funnel/scatterand the like) are ones the spec's text does not name. The claim measures what they do. If they drop measures, it returns an open question. ⛔ No display semantics are invented for them here. - Pins:
- the card's
tableoverrevenue,costandmarginrenders all three; - a two-measure dimensionless
barrenders two marks; - a metric tile is unchanged (the control);
- the query still selects exactly the declared measures.
- the card's
- objectui#8894's warning is not touched here. Its narrowing follows this card; see the retriage answer there.

Why no: a renderer delivers what the installed spec already states ("type: 'table'renders a row of measures"; the chart families "render one mark per measure"), for widgets every door already accepts. No schema, published type or accepted set moves.

DatasetWidget now treats only the metric family as a tile by type. A dimensionless widget stays a tile unless it has 2+ measures on `table`/`pivot` (the flat-table branch renders its one row, with no totals footer because that row is the [] grand total) or on a widget whose CHART_TYPE_MAP family is bar/line/area/combo. For those, the single row is transposed into one chart row per measure, with the headerLabel as the category, one series labelled by the existing `dashboard.total` key, and the compareTo overlay kept. One measure and no dimension stays on the metric branch on every type (pinned byte-identical for table/pivot/bar/line/area/combo).

A renderer that drops declared measures behind a console warning is declared-not-delivered, and a narrowing is free to relax later (the ADR's own argument). column/horizontal-bar reuse the one path rather than a second dialect. AI-error: a publish-time refusal is loud where a console warning is invisible to an AI author, and D leaves `pie` with three measures silently losing two.

Only a console warning names them: PR objectui#8905's "Queried and then never displayed".Why this is a seam, not only a renderer bug
The spec's metric-family arity rule, objectstack-ai/objectstack#17779 (ruling D on objectui#8894), refuses a second measure on
metric/kpi/gauge/solid-gauge/bullet, and reads the TYPE only. Its refusal message, and its ADR-0087 entrydashboard-widget-metric-family-multi-measure-refused, steer the author to "type: 'table'renders a row of measures", and say chart families "render one mark per measure".An author who follows that advice and has no dimension to carry over (a metric tile has none) lands here. Every door is green, and the result is a one-number tile. The spec states a behaviour, "a row of measures", that objectui's renderer does not deliver for a dimensionless widget.
Two directions:
tablerenders its one row of measures, and a chart one mark per measure. This givesvalues[1..]render semantics on those types.Which one is triage's routing call, or a ruling. ⛔ Not decided here.
Why it matters now
objectui#8894's ruling D removes
DatasetWidget's runtime warning once the door makes it unreachable. This arm keeps it reachable, and on this arm nothing else speaks: the doors pass, and the server's_diagnosticsreads valid. So the warning's removal on objectui#8894 waits on this card.Dedupe words:
