What can you do to change a widget's size on a dashboard?

Changing a widget's size on a dashboard involves the ability to manipulate its dimensions effectively to fit the design and functionality requirements of the dashboard. By spanning a widget across multiple rows or columns, you can significantly alter its size, allowing for better alignment with other dashboard elements or enhancing the visual presentation of the data contained within the widget.

This method of resizing is particularly useful for creating a more intuitive layout, where important information can be highlighted by allocating more space to specific widgets. Additionally, it allows for more flexibility in how data is displayed, making it easier for users to interact with and understand the information presented.

The other methods mentioned, such as hiding the widget, deleting it, or relying solely on clicking and dragging to resize, do not directly contribute to changing the widget's size in a significant way or provide as much control over the layout as spanning does. Spanning offers a tailored approach to dashboard design that aligns with the functionalities of many dashboard tools, specifically in environments like Kinaxis, where data visualization is crucial for decision-making.
