Moving widgets in the dashboard

Dashboard
1

Hello,

I am using Nodered Dashboard 2.0 and I am wondering how I can change the position of widgets on my dashboard page? In the previous version this worked but in this new one I have not been able to do this. I would be grateful for an answer. Thank you!

Regards Shaan Patel

Welcome to the forum @Shaan_Patel

You can reorder them within a group by using drag and drop in the Dashboard pane in the right hand panel.

Thanks for quick reply!
I didnt mean to reordering the widgets i meant:
Is it possible to move the widgets freely in the dashboard, I mean I could change their position on the dashboard page. I have a custom background image and I would like to move the gauges freely to different postitions.

Currently that is not available. You will have to insert spacer nodes to fill any empty space. Currently there isn't a spacer node type though (it is in the todo list I think), but you can use a Text node with blank label and contents.

If what you are looking for is moving widgets dynamically (animation), you could do this by setting the CSS (e.g. "margin") in runtime.
