Spacing between visuals

Hi,

 

I'm having trouble designing a dashboard, as the space between the visuals is not consistent and the grid which the visuals snap to leaves too much space. I was wondering if there are any other ways of achieving this, instead of inserting values by hand in the visuals properties. Maybe reducing the size of the grid. Ideally i would like to have 4 or 5 units between the visuals, but they snap to values of 10.

 

Thanks.

Hi @qmest ,

 

Currently, it is not possible to change the grid size, there is an idea about this issue, please vote it up.

 

However, there's a website contains 4 files with different grids that help you align elements across the screen. This video shows you how to use the free Grid Layout from four files you download.

@qmest under formatting pan -> general, you can override x and y values to move the visuals around
