Last updated 1 year ago

The Items Panel

All Items in a Dashboard are placed in a Panel, which can be oriented either horizontally or vertically. Panels can contain other Panels - in this way, you can quickly create complex and flexible layouts in your Dashboards.

To view the current layout of your Panels, clock on the Show panels toggle in the Dashboard control bar, as shown in the screenshot below (1). This will reveal outlines of the Panels, and show their directions (2).

By default, all Dashboards are created with a single horizontal Panel. This Panel cannot be deleted, but its orientation can be changed.

Adding Items to Panels

To add an Item to a Panel, drag a new Item from the Control bar, or an existing Item from anywhere else in the Dashboard. As shown in the screenshots below, the blue insertion indicator will tell you whether the target Panel is oriented vertically (1) or horizontally (2).

Adding Space

You can add blank space between Items or Panels using a Spacer. To add a Spacer, drag the Spacer icon from the control bar, and enter a height/width as desired.
