Using the user’s view
The cool thing about Office Live is that an administrator can configure the Workspaces, Navigation bar, and Dashboards, so the user can focus on adding data to the Workspace rather than having to learn all the minute customization capabilities of the program. However, each user has the ability to use — and customize — personal Dashboards. For example, a Workspace might contain six pages but the user might only need to work with three of them. By modifying the Dashboard, the user can focus on those three without having to view information that isn’t relevant. Only the user who created the Personal Dashboard can view it — and can switch back and forth between the company Dashboard that the administrator created and the personalized Dashboard.
Only the site owner or Workspace administrator can allow a user to access a Workspace. Without that permission, a user cannot create a personalized Dashboard for a Workspace or add pages to an existing one.
Until you customize the Personal View, it’s identical to the Company View. Follow these steps to customize the Personal View of a Dashboard:
- Click Workspaces from the Navigation bar.
- Click the Workspace for which you’d like to customize the Dashboard.
- Select Personal View from the View drop-down list.
- Choose Customize Dashboard from the Common Tasks drop-down list.
- Click Add a Web Part on the section of the Dashboard where you want a Web Part to appear.
- Place a check mark next to each item you want to add, and then click the Add button.
- Click the X in the upper-right corner of each area of the Dashboard that you don’t want to appear.
- Click Exit Edit Mode to save your changes.
