Enabling interaction mode

If a dashboard is in edit mode and the mouse pointer is over a widget, the widget controls are displayed.

You can interact with a widget in edit mode by enabling interaction mode. For example, an Application Studio report might include drag and drop functionality to enable users to configure the report. But if that report is displayed in a widget, dragging will reposition the widget unless you first select interaction mode.

Click Interact to enable interaction mode. The Interact icon varies according to the content of the widget.
