Currently if dashboard contains more than one report stacked one after another they get some predefined height. If reports have multiple results and list is extensive you need to scroll within that report, and on the top of that you need to scroll separately to get to below reports. My team has a feeling of inception with multiplied scrollbars. This could be solved to some extent if the report height would be configurable as it is with "external page" object.

We also have been looking for a way to configure report height in the same way you configure an external page. This is endlessly annoying to our users and would love it if there was a solution!

Yes! The bottom line here is the iframes within the main window create multiple scrollbars. Resolving this would resolve a number of other complaints such as this one: https://one.workfront.com/s/idea/0870z000000PSJoAAO/detail


Coding the dashboard to simply display the # number of hits per screen I've told it to, and making workfront automatically adjust the report height within the dash to match that would be ideal (I seem to recall classic did this). The page should stretch to the length of the report, not always hold it within a specific iframe size that then creates scrollbars.


I get complaints all the time saying "I cant find my report" because they dont understand or see the multiple scrollbars. Because of that i've had to redesign layout templates with one report per dash as much as possible, or revert to charts (which isnt always preferred). it's not a good design.
