Customizing your layout

You can customize your Deephaven layout in a variety of ways by moving and renaming tabs, nesting panels, and adjusting the width and height of panels, or the width of individual columns. Your layout changes are automatically saved, and you will always return to the state your Dashboard or Code Studio was left in the previous session when restarting Deephaven (pending reconnecting to the server).

Caution

If the dashboard author makes subsequent layout changes to your shared dashboard, your changes may be overridden. See Updating Shared Dashboards.

Moving Tabs

The order of the tabs on the left side of the navigation bar can be rearranged by dragging and dropping the tabs into the desired location.

Renaming Tabs

You can rename any open tab by right-clicking its name:

Moving Panels

Codes Studio and Dashboard panels may be rearranged to create a more customized and personalized layout. To move a panel, click and hold on the title tab for a panel you want to move, and then drag the panel to the new location in the window. As one panel is dragged out of its position, a thumbnail of the panel's content is presented within an animated dotted outline which can be used to preview how the new content will be positioned after the mouse button is released.

Nesting Panels

Panels can be nested together to form panel stacks. When multiple panels are nested, the tabs containing the name of each panel are presented successively across the set. The name for the active panel is presented in a brighter/bolder font.

For example, the following screenshot shows five panels of plots nested together. The first panel (histChart) is the active panel (its chart is visible), so its tab name is brighter.

To bring a different table or plot to the front of the panel group, such as categoryPlot in the workspace above, simply click on the tab name:

Adjusting Panel Height and Width

You can also adjust the height and width of each nested panel. To do this, hover your cursor over the gap between two panels. When you're at the correct location, the cursor will change to a double-ended arrow: horizontal for changing the width of a panel and vertical for changing the height of a panel. Simply click and hold the mouse to make your respective change(s) and release the mouse button.

Maximizing/Minimizing Panels

Copying a Panel

The Copy Panel option allows you to copy an entire panel, such as a table (which includes any configured filters and links), plot, or Markdown widget. As shown below, right-click a panel's tab and choose Copy Panel from the context menu. An exact copy will open in your workspace.
