How to Resize Grid Widgets in View Mode

Resizing the grid widget in view mode is a feature that enhances the user experience by allowing for dynamic customization of the column width directly while viewing the dashboard. This functionality is beneficial for users who need to adjust the display of data without switching to design mode.

Enabling Grid Widget Resizing

To enable the resizing of the grid widget in view mode, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the “Basic Settings” of the grid widget you wish to customize.
2. Look for the “Vertical Grid Lines” option within the settings.
3. Enable the “Vertical Grid Lines” by checking the checkbox.

Once the “Vertical Grid Lines” option is enabled, users can resize the grid widget column width in both design and view modes. This is done by clicking and dragging the vertical line at the column’s header to adjust the width to the desired size.

Resizing Columns in View Mode

After enabling the vertical grid lines, resizing columns is straightforward:

• Hover over the header of the column you want to resize.
• Click and hold the vertical line in the column header.
• Drag the line to the left to decrease the width or to the right to increase it.
• Release the mouse button to set the new column width.
  
  

This feature provides a flexible and efficient way to manage the presentation of data on your dashboard without the need for constant switching between viewing and design modes.
