hi dave_fluffy

 

In Q&A you have option to change the visual type and formatting of visual tile and then you can only pin that to your exisitng/new dashboard. You cann't save the tile as Tile is being built at runtime without any saving location.

 

Once you Pin your tile to any dashboard, your latest formatting will be available in respective dashboard. You should make sure that you are selecting the right dashboard while doing Pin.

      Got it now. You want to change the title/background of the tile.

       

      It will not allow. Currently you can change only visual type and few of the properties including color for data points, text for title etc. Background color change or other related properties change will not work. 

       

      In you example give a title to Visual card and it will be saved when you pin to dashboard.
