Clicking the avatar on the top right of the screen will provide you with a multitude of options. At the bottom of the list will be the option to pick between light and dark. Auto will change the look based on the time of day. Widgets can be moved around on the dashboard. Hover over the top of the widget until the mouse changes to the directional symbol. Widgets can be dragged and dropped across the dashboard. They can be placed anywhere the dotted line appears. Click the dots on the top right corner of the widget will allow you to customize that widget. The size of the widgets can be personalized ranging from a one by one to a three by two. Widgets can be added to a custom folder. There is also the option to remove widgets if they are not required by the portal.

Creating Folders for Your Widgets

Click into the ellipses of your widget, you will see the option to create a new folder, or add the widget to an already existing folder. Once you have created your folders, you can also drag and drop them to display in an order of your preference.
