Layout Controller¶
The layout controller allows users to configure the layout of UI elements on the page. Users can select from a variety of UI components to occupy different spaces on a page.
Accessing the Layout Controller¶
The layout controller is located in the upper right area of the page next to the search bar.
Click the layout controller icon to expand the configuration pop-up.
Using the Layout Controller¶
The layout controller divides the page into sections. Each section can hold one UI component.
Caption: View of layout controller expanded with available components to display in the center right section.
To select a UI component, click the icon in the section and select the type of component to display from the dropdown list.
To hide a section entirely, select the No (crossed-out circle) symbol. When a section is hidden, its adjacent sections will expand to fill the gap.
Certain Components in Each Layout Section
Only certain components can be displayed in certain sections. For example, maps and certain table types can only be placed in one of the center sections.
To configure which section expands to the corners of the page, click the directional arrow buttons at the ends of the section. The configuration popup and arrow directions should change appropriately to show which section is now expanding to the ends.
To reset the layout to the persona’s default, click the Reset button.
Saving Layouts to Dashboards¶
To save a layout to the page, make the desired changes and then click the checkmark next to the dashboard selector. This will save the layout to the currently displayed dashboard. For more information on saving pages to dashboards, see Config Basics.
