Content Area Definition Detail

The CAD details section contains the basic attributes of a content area definition. The 'Is Template' attribute defines whether the content area definition is part of the content area library, in which case users can use it as the basis for adding their own content areas to a dashboard.

The basic attributes of a content area definition cannot be changed here. To change them, navigate to a template where it is in use by clicking on the 'View Template' button of a template listed in the 'CAD Usage' section. This will bring up the Dashboard Template Detail page from which the template can be edited if the user has edit rights. Once the dashboard is in edit mode, the user can edit the content area definition provided they have edit rights to that definition.

Refer to Content Area Definitions for further details of how to edit content area definitions.

The CAD Usage section shows where the content area definition is used. These are templates containing content areas using this definition.

Click on 'Vew Template' to display the Dashboard Template Detail page. If the user has edit rights to the template, there will be an option to edit the template and the underlying content area definitions if the user also has edit rights on the content area definition.

This content area definition can be copied if required. Click on the 'Copy CAD' icon to the top right of the page.

Provide a name for the new content area definition and then click on 'Done'
