yuxiqian opened a new pull request, #24867:
URL: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/24867

   ## What is the purpose of the change
   
   Currently, Flink allows creating gauge metrics with various types 
[[1]](https://nightlies.apache.org/flink/flink-docs-master/docs/ops/metrics/#gauge).
 However Web UI doesn't support showing any types other than numerics and 
always displays `NaN`, which isn't very helpful. This change lets dashboard 
displays raw metric value when converting to numbers isn't applicable.
   
   ## Brief change log
   
     - Adds raw value display as fallback when receiving non-numeric metric 
values
     - Changes "Chart / Numeric" label to "Chart / Literal" because not all 
metrics are of number type
