Tile Configuration
Tile configuration allows you to customize each individual tile. It includes common settings such as the tile title and, depending on the tile type, a data field that can be set to a TrendHub view, a context view, monitors, or other components. Additionally, each tile type offers specific configuration options tailored to its use case.
In edit mode, you can manage an individual tile’s configuration by clicking directly on the tile or selecting "Edit" from the dropdown menu accessed via the three-dot icon.
Furthermore, you can manage the tile’s visualization through tile settings. Below, you will find an overview of the available settings. The refresh settings, accuracy, or even the time span for the graph can also be adjusted.
Tile settings
Tile settings give you control over what information is displayed and how it is presented for each tile. Some settings are universal across all tiles, while others are tailored to specific use cases.
