Text tiles

A text tile adds formatted text to a dashboard, such as a heading, a summary of what the dashboard shows, or instructions for the people viewing it.

To add notes to a tile that shows data, use its Notes setting instead.

Add a text tile

You write a text tile's content in the Text section of the tile editor, which holds up to 5,000 characters.

To add a text tile:

1. Add a tile and choose Text Tile as the Tile Type. It's in the Basic group.

2. Under Text, enter your content.

   

3. Use the toolbar to format your text. You can:

   • Make text bold, italic, underlined, or struck through
   • Align text left, centre, right, or justified
   • Add bulleted or numbered lists
   • Add or remove links
   • Insert an image from a web address, with alternative text, a width, and a height

4. Select Apply, then Save the dashboard.

To change the tile's background colour, turn on Custom Background Colour under Tile Settings.
