Dashboard Item Caption

Each dashboard item has a caption that is displayed at the top of this item. The caption contains static text and other information, as well as command buttons.

Caption Overview

You can control the dashboard item caption's visibility.

• When the caption is on, it is always displayed at the top of the dashboard item. Some command buttons are displayed when you hover the mouse pointer over them.
• When the caption is off, it is not visible by default. Some command buttons are displayed in a floating panel when you hover the mouse pointer over them.

Go to the dashboard item Options menu and use the Show Caption option to control the caption visibility:
