Widgets need option to be locked on the grid in edit mode

Widgets need option to be locked on the grid in edit mode. That way when new widgets are created and moving around it doesnβt rearrange your layout unintentionally.

It would be great to have the ability to lock widgets in place. While it is helpful to have the dynamic move, often I am happy with a set-up as I move other features around. By locking individual widgets or group them I could make adjustments with out getting frustrated.

Agreed! Locking widgets in place would be very helpful. Widgets sometimes FLYYYY out of place during editing.

I am surprised this hasn't received more votes. It is frustrating that you sometimes have to rearrange an entire page to add one widget to the layout grid.

One thing that I find extremely frustrating with dashboards is that new widgets are always on the bottom, causing me to have to drag it to the desired position. This always wreaks havoc on my existing widgets. Everything gets skewed while dragging the new widget into position.
There needs to be a way to lock widgets into place so they don't go flying around the dashboard, or (even better) determine the place you want the new widget to drop into and create it in the correct place.

100% Agree! We really need a lock fuction in place for Dashboard - unnecessary time is wasted in constant reformatting because everything shifts when you add a new widget. it's highly frustrating when building a new dashboard with a lot of widgets !

Based on my experience, using a mouse while editing dashboards does help with better control and positioning, but itβs not a complete solution. A widget lock or layout lock feature would go a long way in improving efficiency and user experience
