# Working with dashboard charts

> Add, edit, duplicate, hide, and configure chart tiles on Omni dashboards, including filter connections and background settings.

## Editing charts

To view the options for editing a tile's content or appearance, hover over a tile and click the <Icon icon="ellipsis-vertical" type="solid" /> (three dots icon) in the top right corner.

If you have dashboard filters, keep in mind that when you are viewing a specific workbook tab in edit mode the dashboard filters aren't applied so the results may look different.

## Hiding charts

Choose **Hide Chart** to hide the tile from the dashboard. Perhaps the underlying data is important to the workbook, but you don't want to have end users be able to interact with the data on a dashboard level.

Other queries on the dashboard will still be able to access hidden tiles (via `XLOOKUP`), if you need to filter a hidden tile you can map the filter before hiding the tile and it will update with the filter selection.

Note: charts that are excluded from the dashboard will not run on the dashboard unless they are invoked by another query (i.e. XLOOKUP, alert, or used in a filter).

## Editing chart settings

To edit the visualization in a tile, click the <Icon icon="ellipsis-vertical" type="solid" /> (three dots icon) in the right corner of the tile. Then, click **Edit chart** to edit the chart on the dashboard or **Edit in workbook** to edit the chart in the workbook.

<Note>
  **Advanced layout dashboards have a different editing experience.** For details, see [Editing charts in advanced layout](/visualize-present/dashboards/containers-items#editing-chart-items).
</Note>

### Adding chart subtitles and descriptions

Editing a chart on the dashboard allows you to add an optional subtitle and description to the chart.

To have Omni's AI write the subtitle or description, click the  (star icon) and toggle **Let AI write the subtitle/description** to on.

You can also provide additional context to the AI to guide the results.

## Removing backgrounds

Choose **Remove Background** to make the background of a tile be transparent.

## Copying charts and links

The tile menu includes a **Copy** submenu with options for copying charts and links:

* **To another dashboard or workbook**: Copy the tile to a different dashboard or workbook. This works similarly to [copying a workbook tab to an existing workbook](/analyze-explore/workbook-basics#copy-a-tab-to-an-existing-workbook).
* **Link to workbook tab**: Copy a direct link to the tile's underlying workbook tab to your clipboard

To access these options, click the <Icon icon="ellipsis-vertical" type="solid" /> (three dots icon) in the top right corner of a tile, then select **Copy**.

## Interacting with table tiles

Dashboard tiles containing table visualizations support spreadsheet-style selection, copying, and cell interaction. Dashboard tables are read-only — editing, column reordering, and calculation features are only available in [workbook tables](/analyze-explore/point-click-queries#interacting-with-tables).

For a full list of keyboard shortcuts, see [Table shortcuts](/getting-started/keyboard-shortcuts#table-shortcuts).

### Selecting cells

* **Click** a cell to select it
* **Click and drag** across cells to select a rectangular region
* **Shift+click** a cell to select a range from the anchor to the clicked cell
* **Command+click** (Mac) or **Ctrl+click** (Windows) a cell to add or remove it from your selection
* **Click a row number** to select an entire row. Combine with **Shift** to extend the selection or **Command/Ctrl** to toggle the row.
* **Click a column header** to select an entire column. Combine with **Shift** to extend the selection or **Command/Ctrl** to toggle the column.
* **Arrow keys** to move the focused cell. Hold **Shift** to extend the selection.
* **Command+A** (Mac) or **Ctrl+A** (Windows) to select all cells
* **Escape** or **click outside** the table to clear the selection

### Copying cells

Select one or more cells, then press **Command+C** (Mac) or **Ctrl+C** (Windows) to copy the selected values to your clipboard. Copied data uses a tab-separated format, so pasting into Excel or Google Sheets automatically places values into the correct cells.

When all cells are selected with **Command+A** / **Ctrl+A**, column headers are included in the copied output.

### Context menu

Right-click a cell to open a context menu with options to drill, filter, copy, or expand the cell value.

## Inspecting chart queries

You can quickly access SQL debugging information for a chart by using the **Inspect** option. This opens the underlying workbook with the [Inspector panel](/analyze-explore/workbook-inspector) pre-opened, allowing you to view query SQL, cache status, and execution details.

To inspect a chart, click the <Icon icon="ellipsis-vertical" type="solid" /> (three dots icon) in the right corner of the tile, then click **Inspect**.

This feature requires the necessary permissions to analyze data and query SQL. For more information about viewing generated SQL, see [Inspecting query SQL](/analyze-explore/sql/generation#inspecting-query-sql).
