Editing dashboard content
Edit mode
To edit dashboard content, the dashboard must be in edit mode. Click the icon on the dashboard toolbar to enable Edit mode. Newly created dashboard is automatically in edit mode. The borders of the selected widget are highlighted and the widget's toolbar is displayed when you click a widget.
Widget's toolbar
The widget's toolbar contains these options:
- Interact
- Properties
- Copy Widget
- Remove
Drag and drop
A widget displays a preview when dragged. The preview indicates where the widget is placed when dropped and its dimensions.
You can drop a widget:
- Where required in a blank dashboard.
- When its preview is displayed in the position you require. The dropped widget is resized to fit the space indicated by the preview.
- When the hotspot is displayed. If the hotspot is on an existing widget, the dropped widget cuts the existing widget in half, vertically or horizontally, according to whether the hotspot is on a vertical or horizontal border. If the hotspot is on an edge of the dashboard, the dropped widget snaps to the edge and occupies the available length.
- When the mouse pointer on a
dragged widget is directly over an existing widget. The widgets swap places. Or, if the
dragged widget is dragged from a content connection, it replaces the existing widget.
Note: Swapping might not be possible if there is an issue with the specified minimum size.
