Multiple tabs

An individual dashboard may be configured to use an arbitrary number of Gadgets, including multiple copies of the same Gadget with different configurations. Despite this, users may find it more convenient to add more tabs to the dashboard, creating different screens for different types of information or tasks.

To add more tabs:

  1. Browse to the existing dashboards by clicking the eAttorney logo at the top-left of the screen.

  2. Click the Add New Tab button, represented as a +, next to the "User Settings" gear icon.
