Dashboard Tips & Tricks

Positioning and Organization

Dashboard components, be they sections or widgets, can be reorganized via drag-and-drop. To reposition something, simply click and drag the component using the corresponding icons.

Tech Detection Counts & Unit Sums

Tech monitor charts can be customized to either count individual detections (websites) or to sum their corresponding unit counts. Review the widget’s Settings to toggle between the two options.

Interactive Charts

Tech Monitor bar and doughnut charts have interactive elements that can be hidden and visualized after rendering.
