Display components on several dashboard views
You can display a component on several views of a dashboard.
A component placed on several tabs can be used for filtering other components and triggering selection events across multiple tabs. And vice versa a global placed component can be filtered and triggered by other components. If a global component is selected, e.g the you click on a data point of a line chart, the selection is shown in the same line charts on all tabs where it is placed. Also dependant filter and actions are triggered for the entire dashboard.
On each tab the component has the same position, size, configuration and filter conditions etc., except the component layering, see
Move components to front or back.
