Desktop table headers became Title and Subtitle on a Dashboard

[KK22]

Hi,

there is a screenshot of the desktop page- a table and a sentence in the text box.

After it was published to the dashboard the headers became Tile's title and subtitle.  The text box disspeared from the Tile all together.

I haven't had this issue before. It is a new tile that I added to the dashboard. I created new pages several times in Desktop, mocked data there thinking it might not like my data but alas the result is the same.

Thought though... can the way I pinned the visual be the reason?

Thanks.

what wuld you recommend to do?

Pin a table visual that has no ornaments, and then manually set the title and the subtitle in the tile.

I'll accept it as a solution as it is another way to arrange the dashboard and it works. However I figured out how I did it before - bringing the visual and the text box from the report to the dashboard. Hightlight report's page and click Edit. In the far right corner there is a bar with the pin. It will pin the page and everything on it to the tile.

what are the ornaments? a textbox and such?

[lbendlin]

Title, Totals etc - the visual's attributes

All right, thanks, I'll try your advice later and let you know.

The text box is not part of the table visual. Hence when you pin the table visual to a tile you only get the data from the table visual.

Did you maybe previously pin pages rather than visuals?

Thank you for your response. I was away from the office and didn't check my emails. yes, I think you are correct about the pinning the visual. I created the report a few years back and since then I didn't need a new tile until now. Honestly I don't remember how I did it. I remember pinning involved and the only pinning option I found is pinning the visual. Will you please give me a direction to correctly pinning the page to the tile.

Thaks.

I would not want to recommend pinning pages. That will not be a good user experience in my opinion.
