##Moving & Resizing Dashboard Tiles The tiles can be resized by dragging the corners to the desired length or width. Tiles can also be moved around the Dashboard. When the tile shows a green hue, it is positioned correctly and can placed on the grid. If the tile shows a red hue, it is not positioned on the grid properly and cannot be moved.

Properly Positioned Tile for move (green hue)

Improperly Placed Tile for move (red hue)
