Layout

The Card dashboard item allows you to manage the position and visibility of elements displayed on cards. These elements include actual and target values, a delta indicator and corresponding delta values, a sparkline, etc.

To manage the position and visibility of card elements, choose a predefined layout template and customize its settings.

Available Layout Templates

The table below contains information about the available layout templates:

Layout Type Example Description
Stretched Card_StretchedLayout_Web The Stretched layout template arranges card elements so that they occupy an entire card area.
