Widget gallery
In this chapter you will find a short description of the available widgets in the widget gallery. Widgets with more extensive configurations are described in separate chapters.
Image
The image widget displays either any image from the document management or the image assigned to the main group.
Switch to the edit mode of the image widget to select the image source and configure the display.
- Image source
Select the Image of Real Estate option to automatically display the image of the currently selected property. You can change the property image by selecting the corresponding main group in the group navigation, then entering the edit mode and then clicking on the displayed image or placeholder at the top of the detail view. To do so, however, it is mandatory for the type of the main group to be Real Estate.
Alternatively, you can display any image from the document management. Click on the Select Image option and then select the desired image. You can upload new images in the document management.
- Image scale mode
Set how the image should be scaled within the widget. Fill scales the image proportionally until it fills the entire area. This may cut off any protruding edges of the image. This is mainly suitable for photos such as property images which should be displayed as large as possible. Fit scales the image proportionally until it reaches the maximum size at which it is still fully visible. This is primarily suitable for logos or graphics that should not be trimmed. Stretch scales the image disproportionally until it fills the entire widget. Due to the disproportionate scaling, the image is more or less compressed depending on the size of the browser window.
- Image alignment
Specify how to orient the image within the widget. This option only applies to the Fill and Fit scaling modes.
- Style
Changes the widget background design. This setting is only relevant for the Fit scaling mode or when the image graphic has transparent areas, i.e. when the dashboard background peeks through. The same option is also available and explained in more detail in the chart widget.

Map
Displays a map of the surroundings of the current main group. You can change the coordinates by selecting the corresponding main group in the group navigation, going to the edit mode and then entering the correct and complete address of your object in the detail view. To do so, however, it is mandatory for the type of the main group to be Real Estate.
