The Edit Toolbar has a number of options for you to customize your dashboard. When you select one or more dashboard items, the Edit Toolbar is displayed. Click Publish to save the changes to the dashlet.

Bring to front or send to back

Bring To Front brings the item to the topmost layer of the dashboard. For example, if three items on the dashboard overlap, the selected item will now exist in front of the other two.



Send To Back sends the selected item to the backmost layer of the dashboard. For example, if three items on the dashboard overlap, the selected item will now exist behind the other two.



The forward and back icons determine what layer of the dashboard a selected item exists.

Bring forward, send backward

Bring Forward moves the item forward one layer on the dashboard. For example, if three items on the dashboard overlap and the backmost item is selected, the selected item will now exist between the other two items.



Send Backward moves the item back one layer on the dashboard. For example, if three items on the dashboard overlap and the topmost item is selected, the selected item will now exist between the other two items.
