B1UP Dashboard Grids Horizontal Scrolling
Answered
I have multiple dashboards where the grids due to requests have many columns multiple times. They become extremely cluttered quickly trying to fit the necessary information. Is there a plan to add horizontal scrolling on grids. I've seen this feature on other software's with grids that display queried data and its extremely useful to avoid having to constantly resize columns and be able to easily mine through and view data-sets.

The dashboard is not really meant to have horizontal scrollbars so the underlying technology does not offer it.
But if you have so much Grid-data have you considered using SQL report Widgets instead. They have scrollbars: https://help.boyum-it.com/B1UP/sql-report-widget.html

In some cases changing that route has worked but we have dashboards that have either multiple grids and or a mix of a grid and charts with easy filter options for the user where the filter will then update all the screen items. Using a sql report you lose that functionality of including graphics and other grids and or items that all update on one filter to give the user a consistent view of the data set they're trying to understand.
Also if my understanding with the SQL report widget is correct we would lose the dynamic branch filtering we have implemented on many dashboards using parameters to filter the data set view to the areas the specific user has access to.
