You can personalize your main dashboard to show the panes you use the most. Dashboard layout changes are automatically saved and restored on refresh, making it easier to tailor the dashboard to you individual workflows.

Panels. You can change the layout of the panels in the following ways:

• Collapse. Temporarily reduce the panel (and all its panes) to a title bar so that it takes up less space on the screen, while still being available to expand it again later. Use the collapse button in the panel's title bar for this action.

  

• Expand. Return a collapsed panel (and all its panes) to its original size so that you can see the panel's content. Use the expand button to the right of the pane for this action.

• Expand. Return a collapsed pane to its original size so that you can see the pane's content. Use the expand slider button to the right of the pane for this action.
