- In order to add an additional row below the default row, select the + button in the top left hand corner of the default row. This will add a new row directly below.

- To add additional row's, select the + button on the row to which you want the new row to appear below. If adding multiple rows, ensure that each row is allocated a % Height value and that the culmination of all the row heights % equals 100.
Adding Columns to rows
- In order to add additional columns to a row, select the button from the top right hand corner of the row. This will add a column to the row.
- In order for the columns to correctly display on the Dashboard ensure each each column is set to 50% Width (next to the Chart button in each column).
- To add additional columns to a row select the button from the top right hand corner of the row. additional columns will appear on the row.
