Widgets can be customized in Remote Desktop Manager to let users build dashboards while giving administrators the ability to define and enforce a standard widget configuration.
Widgets are available in both Devolutions Hub and Devolutions Server.
Click Customize dashboard in Remote Desktop Manager to open the Customize dashboard layout window.
My dashboard: Dashboard personalized by each user.
System dashboard: Preset dashboard set by an administrator for consistent usage across the organization.
The Widgets window lets you configure which widgets are displayed and when. Widgets are grouped by type (Counter, List, and Graph), and each widget has a Visibility option you can set (such as Always, Never, or If not empty).
Use the buttons to Add widget, Show all, Hide all, or Reset visibilities then click Save to apply your changes or Cancel to discard them.
The Add widget window lets you create a new widget.

Use System settings to determine whether users can customize their dashboard or whether a preset layout is applied (optionally enforced).
Navigate to the ribbon of Remote Desktop Manager and click Administration – System settings – Application – Dashboard.
In Default dashboard layout, select one of the following:
User’s dashboard: Displays the user’s dashboard.
System dashboard: Applies the preset dashboard by default, while still allowing users to customize their dashboard.
Disallow selecting a different dashboard: This option is only enabled when selecting System dashboard. It forces the preset dashboard and prevents user customization.
User: Dashboard personalized by each user.
System: Preset dashboard set by an administrator for consistent usage across the organization.
