Dashboard Settings define the global behavior, structure, and visual styling of a dashboard. These properties control how pages transition, how scenarios are styled, how the canvas scales across devices, and how shared elements such as tooltips, data insights, and empty states appear.
Because these settings operate at the dashboard level, they establish a consistent foundation for every scenario across all pages. Instead of configuring styling and behavior repeatedly for each scenario, you can define them once and ensure visual and functional consistency throughout the entire dashboard.
You can access Dashboard Settings in two ways:
On the dashboard designer ribbon, select the Dashboard tab and then choose Document Settings. The settings appear in the Inspector Panel on the right side of the designer.
Click anywhere on an empty area of the dashboard canvas (where no scenario is selected). This automatically opens the dashboard-level properties in the Inspector Panel.
If a scenario is selected, the Inspector Panel displays scenario-level properties instead. To return to Dashboard Settings, deselect the scenario by clicking on a blank space in the designer.
Dashboard Settings apply globally to all scenarios across every page of the dashboard. When you configure a property here, the change is reflected consistently throughout the entire document.
Scenario-level settings can override these global configurations. However, if no override is applied within an individual scenario, it inherits the Dashboard Settings by default. This hierarchical structure allows you to maintain consistency while still supporting scenario-specific customization when needed.
Controls how users navigate between dashboard pages. This includes automatic page switching, pagination styles, animations, and tab behavior, allowing you to define the overall navigation experience.
Defines shared visual styling for all scenarios, including palette selection, background color, borders, padding, opacity, and shadow effects. These settings ensure visual consistency across the dashboard.
Determines the canvas size, screen configuration, scaling behavior, and font adaptability. Layout settings control how the dashboard renders across different screen sizes and resolutions.
Controls theme selection, fonts, page borders, background styling, and scrollbar customization. These settings establish the overall look and feel of the dashboard.
Defines the visual presentation of tooltips, including typography, background styling, borders, padding, and optional images or gradients.
Configures automated analytical observations that help users detect trends, anomalies, correlations, and other patterns directly within scenarios.
Controls how scenarios appear when no data is available, including custom messaging, text alignment, font styling, and optional background images.
Determines how null and blank values are displayed in scenarios, allowing you to customize their visual representation without modifying the underlying data.
Defines the formatting and styling of the tabular data view displayed in Focus mode, including predefined templates and fully customized table styles.
