After Edit dashboard is clicked, every widget on the dashboard sits inside a grid cell. Add, move, resize, duplicate, or remove widgets directly on the grid.

​
Move a widget

Use the widget’s move handle to drag the widget anywhere on the grid. Surrounding widgets reflow to make space.

​
Resize a widget

Every widget starts at a default size that fits its content. To change it, hover the widget’s bottom-right corner — a resize cursor appears. Drag outward to enlarge, inward to shrink. The widget snaps to grid cells, so the final size is always aligned with neighboring widgets. The dashboard grid is 6 columns wide.

​
Duplicate a widget

Duplicate widget creates a copy of the widget on the same dashboard, placed near the original. All the widget’s settings — breakdowns, filters, data sources, styling — carry over to the copy, so the duplicate starts as an exact match of the original. To duplicate a widget, open the widget action menu and choose Duplicate widget. Once the duplicate is on the grid, move, resize, or reconfigure it independently. Changes to the copy don’t affect the original, and vice versa. Notepad widgets carry their content across too: the rich-text content of the original notepad is copied into the duplicate, so the copy opens with the same body text as its source. Duplicating a widget requires the same permission as deleting a widget — workspace admins and members with View and edit access can duplicate; View only members cannot. See Permissions and access for the role matrix. As with any widget content change, click Publish changes to update the published dashboard.

​
Vertical vs custom alignment

The dashboard’s style panel exposes two alignment modes:
  • Vertical (default) — widgets auto-stack in the order they were added. Move and resize still work, but layout snaps back to vertical order after each change.
  • Custom — widgets stay wherever they were dropped. Dragging a widget into an occupied space pushes the existing widget down instead of snapping.
Use vertical for simple list-style dashboards. Use custom for branded layouts where exact placement matters (executive dashboards, client reports).

​
Move a widget between pages (report mode)

The dashboard grid is a single scrollable surface — there are no “pages” until Report mode is on. In Report mode, the grid is paginated to A4 pages, and widgets can be dragged from one page to another. The page acceptance is checked live as the widget is dragged: pages that don’t have room highlight as unavailable. To re-arrange pages without Report mode on, change the order in normal mode by moving widgets up or down the grid — top of the grid is page 1 in Report mode, and each configured page break starts a new page.

​
Page breaks

When the dashboard uses custom alignment, hard page breaks can be enabled in the style panel. Each page break starts a new page in Report mode and PDF export. Page breaks have no visible effect outside Report mode.

​
Publish behavior

Widget layout changes stay unpublished while editing. Click Publish changes to update the published dashboard, or click Cancel to discard unpublished layout changes.

​
When a widget value looks stale after moving

Moving a widget does not change its data — the same query, same date range, same filters. If a value looks wrong after repositioning, click Refresh data in the dashboard header to bypass cached results. A browser refresh alone only re-renders cached data.
