Text Tiles

Text tiles are a good way to segment your dashboard into different sections. For example, you can create a text tile with a title collating together several tiles, or enrich it with notes, which will help dashboard readers understand what they are seeing (as shown below). 

This article includes the following: 

• Creating a new Dashboard text tile
• Customizing Dashboard text tiles

Creating a new Dashboard text tile
