(edit - now with added screenshots!)
How do I get/type * – * for all available metrics to work? Whenever I type it is says ‘no matching metrics’, even if I delete it from a populated performance dashboard and then re-add it!
If I delete the - in the box above, I can’t re-add it by typing it in again:
On the metric tab, choose advanced instead of quickfind and then put a * in each box. It should work.
Can you add some screenshots to show us what you mean? You’ll need to edit your intial post to do this 
If you just want all the metrics for that object you have scoped just press down arrow in the “choose metric” box.
There are also a KB article when you have different objects with the same counter name. Then you can use wildcards.

If I understand the question correctly?
I do want all available metrics, on spark lines - like you get on the Performance Perspective of a server.
I just tried. Choose Sparkline as metric. Then scoped the class to “Windows Servers”. Pressed arrow down in “choose metric”. Then I get a list of all metrics available for thos objects/object. Maybe your object that you choose dont have any performance metrics?
I can see all of the metrics, but i want to select them all at once (like a . for everything in a folder) and display them on spark lines. Apologies if I’m not making myself clear. This is how it’s done on the Performance perspective in the screenshot above, but I can’t replicate that by typing in .
Ok, now I got you.
On the metric tab, choose advanced instead of quickfind and then put a * in each box. It should work.
Bingo! Thanks very much
