Set the Layout of Dashparts

You decide how you want your dashparts to display on the Dashboard. You can select the overall way in which dashparts are arranged. You can also drag and drop individual dashparts to the location you wish.

To customize the layout of your Dashboard, complete the following steps:

  1. Click Dashboard at the top of the screen.
  2. On the toolbar, click Window.
  3. Select one of the following options:
    Option Description
    Cascade This option overlays dashparts one on top of the other.
    Tile Horizontally This option arranges your dashparts horizontally.
    Tile Vertically This option arranges your dashparts vertically.
    Tile Grid This option arranges the dashparts in rows of two or more columns, depending on whether or not you hide the Navigation menu.
  4. Drag and drop dashparts to place them on the Dashboard.

    Place your cursor over the dashpart heading and then drag the dashpart to its location. Dashparts can be dragged past the right margin and below the bottom margin of the Vision screen. However, they cannot be dragged past the left margin or above the top margin. Dashparts remain where they are dropped, even if that is on top of another dashpart.

  5. To resize a dashpart, hold your cursor over the right-bottom margin of the dashpart and, when the cursor changes to a resize icon, use it to resize your dashpart.

    Dashparts can be resized past the bottom and right margins of the Vision screen. Dashparts being resized appear on top of other dashparts, and remain on top while dragging. Resized dashparts also remain on top after the mouse is released.
