What you should know about custom colors
- Up to 20 custom colors can be saved on a dashboard.
- Custom colors are unique to the dashboard; the setting will not apply to other dashboards. If you add a custom color to widget A, you'll be able to quickly select the same custom color on widget B if these widgets are on the same dashboard.
Start a new dashboard from your current one to keep the custom colors and the other items in it. To create a copy of the dashboard you're editing, selectFile>Save as New. - When viewing a dashboard in the mobile app, custom colors will be replaced by the closest available default colors.
