After completing the layout, refine the look and feel of the dashboard.
To refine the dashboard’s layout:
| 1. | If it isn’t open, locate the Sales Dashboard you created in Creating a Dashboard, typically in the /Dashboards folder. |
| 2. | Right-click the dashboard name, select Open in Designer from the context menu |
| 3. | When the dashboard opens in the designer, click Preview. |
The end user’s view of the dashboard appears.
| 4. | In the Country field, select a new value. |
The reports do not update because the dashboard includes the Apply button.
| 5. | Return to the Dashboard Designer and on the Country filter dashlet, right-click and select Properties. |
| 6. | Deselect Show Apply button, and select Show Reset button. |
The dashlet's Apply button disappears, and the Reset button appears.
| 8. | Reposition the Reset button to the right side of the dashlet using the Position of dashlet buttons drop-down menu. Click OK. |
| 9. | Click Preview. The end user view of the dashboard appears. |
| 10. | Change the value in the Country input control. The dashboard reflects the change immediately. |
| 11. | Return to the Dashboard Designer and click Save > Save Dashboard. The dashboard is saved to the repository. |
