Frame Width

Administrators can control the width of the dashboard frames. By selecting frame width, and by using the drag and drop feature to reorder frames, you can control the order in which frames appear in the Lucity Web dashboard. More information about Frame Organization

You can make one of the following selections to a Frame Width when you add or edit a Frame:

• Default: Make no selection to make the frame 50% screen width.
• Custom: Enter a custom width in pixels > 10.
• Span: Mark Span Frame to make the frame span the entire width.

Frame Width

Default

By default a frame will take up 50% of the available dashboard space. When you use only default frames you will have 2 columns.

Custom

Custom widths enable administrators to fit together different pieces of dashboard information and fit frame sizes to the contents of the frame. A frame will have a custom width if the Width field is populated in the frame properties.

• Widths of 0-10 are ignored and the frame is displayed using the default width.
• Widths of >10 are used by the system to display the frame.

Span

When enabled, a frame can span the entire width of the available dashboard space. This will stop any frames from appearing next to the span frame. A frame will span the area if the Span Frame option is enabled in the frame properties. This will override anything entered in the frame properties' Width field.

Frame Width in Dashboard/Map Split Screen

When the Dashboard/Map Split Screen is open, you can drag the splitbar to adjust the size of the dual Web Map and Dashboard views. These adjustments will automatically resize Dashboard frames to fit the window.

• Frames that are set to the default 50% width will shrink and overlap if necessary to fit a narrower window.
• If you want frames to stack instead of overlap, change the frame's width to a set percentage. This setting will also apply to the non-split dashboard view.
• Frames that are set to span the whole width of the window will shrink in width to accommodate the new window size.
• If users refresh the page while the Split Screen is open, the system will keep that view upon reloading the Dashboard page.
