With Aptify, you can drag and drop views into personal dashboards. This feature simplifies the process of adding an existing view of dashboard. You simply select the view that you want to add within the Folder List and then drop it in the suitable location on the dashboard. The system creates the required dashboard part for you automatically.

Follow these steps to drag and drop a view into a dashboard:

  1. Add the Folder List to your desktop, if necessary using the Aptify Button's Folder List option option.
