Add an Image to a Widget

Use the Dashboard Editor to add an image to a Widget. Images can be:

  • Imported: Any image stored in the Image Manager.
  • Stored Values: Images used as Stored Values (ex: Company logo).
  • Conditional (Expression-driven): For example, define an Expression to conditionally display a warning icon to indicate a surpassed threshold (ex: Open Incidents surpassed 100 count threshold).
  • None: Widget does not use an image.
  • Aligned: To the Top/middle/bottom and left/right/center of the Widget.

Good to know:
