Add text boxes to dashboards to create separate sections within the dashboard

Be great if we could add a free text break in a dashboard with a title header.

Agreed, simple but effective way to help people navigate dashboards!

Hey folks!

You can now add text, images, and videos to your reporting dashboards. Use this feature to arm your team with the context and instructions they need to access and understand data by adding text, images, and videos to dashboards.

To do so, navigate to the Actions button on the dashboard and select Insert images, text, or video.

Best!

Joe

Hi @JoeMayall it is great them implemented this but it’s so not functional in some cases.  
I just want to add a thin break with a label not an entire block?

</div>

@JoeMayall I totally agree with @Melly2022; I’m just looking for a way to add a small thin line to section things off and make it easier to read. One of our dashboards has a lot of information that looks overwhelming. I don’t want to make separate dashboards because the reports play off each other, so if I could separate sections, it would be visually easier to digest. Is there anything to help with this in the works?

</div>

@JoeMayall I’m with these two too. Having a massive block just to have a few words of text as a title is excessive. If the secions were halved again so they took up less space this may do this job.

</div>

Hi @JoeMayall Agree with all above, if we can adjust the size of the text block so make it a thin line to break up each section of the dashboard that would be very good!

100% Agree with all of the above - the LARGE box with one line of text is more distracting than helpful as a section divider / header

Another upvote. A small feature with great impact! A tiny linebreak/section with a heading would be great.

We have quite a few large Dashboards - sales activity for example. I want all of this data in the same dashboard. Having sections based on activity type would be ideal for readability. However, adding the large box for a heading looks off and takes up way more space than necessary.

100% agree - would love just a thin banner otherwise it makes the team scroll which does not help visibility

Another upvote for a small banner/heading text box that doesn’t take up so much room on the dashboard! Would be a HUGE help for complicated dashboards.

Yes a thin line and header please! Would alsi be great if there was more flexibility in display size of each report. Half the height of the current blocks would be good.

</div>

Came here to post the same suggestion. I agree with all the posters above. Need to be able to break section with a thin banner image or text that is responsive, not a huge block.

Agree that the large block is more distracting than helpful - the ability to decrease the height of the text block would be ideal.

Agree, a more customisable dashboard with thin breaks would be great!

This is a great idea to add a thin label on dashboards and for this asset to not be counted as a “report” as there is a limit of 30 reports on one dashboard it really limits your creative ability on these dashboards.

The option to customise these dividers as well would be ideal - currently everything is white on these dashboards, being able to change the background colour of a “divider” would really break some of these reports up and make it easier to read the different data sets on the dashboard.

Has any update been made on this? Would deffinalty want to take advantage of this. New to hubspot and finding the reporting sophistication a bit light.

Just adding that this hasn’t been delivered. ineffective delivery of a new feature, isn’t a completedelivery of said feature.  
A giant text box is 1 feature, but a headings box that only allows for a Heading and Subheading, without being a giant text box.

Bring on a sectional heading for dashboards please!!! This is 1 of the main reasons we still use other platforms for reporting to stakeholders (Whatagraph for 1 is pretty good but has limitations and some API lag issues)
