Scale to Fit allows you to change the Widget visualization fit in View Mode depending on the available space. Hence, after selecting any of these options, click Save and switch to View Mode to visualize the fit.

A vertical and horizontal scroll bar is provided if the dashboard page contains an appreciably large widget, or several widgets plotted. The table given below describes different fields present on widget page formatting.
