Resizing visualizations

Sometimes, one type of visualization takes more space and others take less space, and it looks weird if we show them in the same size box. For example, if we want to show the data table and a data metric, then the data metric can be shown in much less space in comparison to a data table, since a data table has multiple columns with multiple rows, which requires more space than a data metric, which only requires a single line with less width required. To handle these issues, we have the option to resize the visualization. To resize a Kibana visualization, we need to perform the following steps:

  1. Click on the Edit link on the top menu.
  2. Hover over the bottom-right resize icon to convert the mouse cursor to the resize tool.
  3. Drag the mouse by clicking the left button to change the dimension of the visualization container.
  4. Release the mouse button to freeze the size.
  5. Click on the Save link to save the dashboard:
