dashboard tile width

One tile on the dashboard is of a simple 2 column report.  It is too wide.  Each column is at least twice as wide as its widest entry.

 

Any attempt to narrow it - just bounces back to its same wide width.... unless I really narrow it alot and then it won't display one of the columns....

 

So am I missing something in terms of any other control of this type tile?  I really wonder about that bounce back to the wide width and why the ability to narrow the tile will not stick......

It seems there’re just predetermined sizes for dashboard tiles now. You can vote this idea here.

@CahabaData Try changing visual width on the actual report and then on the dashboad tile.

alas - no joy.  In Service Report I can definitely make it more narrow.  Then I deleted the current wide tile, and then pinned the report.  But it remains very wide - its a matter of taste but too much white space....

 

am sharing the overall dashboard with a map

 

In settings there was an option for Tile Flow which I've tried checking and not checking but it made no affect that I could see.

 

When I attempt to narrow the tile, it narrows with my cursor but an outline remains and it just snaps back to it unless I narrow it so much that 1 column disappears.

 

It's wierd because in the tutorial videos they seem to resize things at will without problem but I can't seem to get that sort of granularity.......
