Chart positioning
When multiple dashboard items are added, the position of each dashboard item determines the overall layout of the dashboard. The grid layout determines the position of an item on the dashboard. See illustration below.
The default position for the first chart on a dashboard is Center. When you create a second chart the Position of the new chart is automatically set to Bottom.
The positioning of dashboard items is indicated by an icon to the left of their name.
See the illustration below.
There are two ways to change the position of a chart.
- From the context menu.
- From the Edit Dashboard item dialog.
