The widget toolbar

The widget toolbar is located at the top of each widget.
The actions that are available to you depend on the mode in which you are working with the dashboard (view or design) and on the widget type.

In view mode, you can update the widget (this operation is available for all widget types) and add a new entity (this operation is available for only the table widget).

In design mode you can delete the widget and edit its properties:

You can switch to design mode only if you have the rights to modify the dashboard on which the widget is added—that is, only of you see the Design button on the dashboard toolbar.

The widget toolbar includes only standard buttons, which are described in the following section.
