Element Block – not available on dashboards at present¶
The Element Block is offered in the palette of the dashboard editor, but dashboards do not draw it. The widget and everything inside it stay invisible.
This page is part of the widget reference.
1. At a glance¶
| Purpose | Intended as a container that holds other widgets and reacts to clicks itself |
| State | Not drawn on dashboards. Forms offer an element block of their own that works. |
| Use instead | Vertical Stack or Horizontal Stack to group widgets; Button or Image with a click action for something clickable |
2. Settings¶
The editor offers "Element" (the HTML element, for example div), "Tooltip", "Click Action",
"Shift-Click Action", "Ctrl-Click Action", "Alt-Click Action" and "Disabled". They have no
effect on a dashboard.
3. Limitations¶
- Widgets placed inside an Element Block are not shown. Move them into a stack.
