NEW! Multi-widget editing in dashboards

Jason DelValle

Hey Community! 

New feature alert! Multi-widget editing allows you to modify multiple dashboard widgets simultaneously, which saves a considerable amount of time and ensures all of the widgets you select look uniform.

You can access multi-widget editing by selecting more than one widget and clicking on the pencil icon to edit the common properties shared between the selected widgets, like font styling, widget behavior, and more.

This feature is available for Trial, Pro, Business and Enterprise plans.

To confirm, an example would be I can update all my header fonts at the same time? 🤗

Barak Schriger

@Amanda Winter yes you can! When you say header - do you mean titles of your widgets or are you using Title widgets as headers? Title widgets are different from the title section of a widget (ex. Metric widget or Rich text widget)

Modifying widget titles:

In Dashboard edit mode, first select the widgets you want to update: You can individually select multiple widgets either using command + select widgets, "draw" a box around the widgets you want to select or simply command + A to select all widgets on your dashboard.

Next, if you want to update the titles of all your widgets, in the widget settings panel in the section "Title", you will see all the attributes you can update for the titles. This will update all widgets in your selection at once.

Modifying Title widgets:

After selecting the widgets you want to update (using any of the methods above), in the widget settings panel, you can go to the "Widget Styling" section and modify the attributes found in "Body text" section.

Hope that helps!

Thanks,

Barak

I LOVE THE NEW GRID LINES (RED/BLUE) TO HELP ALIGN THE WIDGETS. THIS HELPS A LOT

Amanda Winter

@Barak Schriger , Yes, I mean title of my widgets. I do use some title widgets, but most of my current dashboards use the title of the widget and have specific fonts and color schemes to match my organizations colors. It will be very nice to try this out on my next dashboard!

This is a great feature, this will definitely help out selecting multiple widgets and edit at the same time. I was looking forward for this new feature. Love it.

This is fantastic. I've used it to refurb a particularly complex Dashboard. It saved me hours! I've passed this insightful article on to other friends who are power users.

Thanks!
