In the Efficient use of views recipe, you discovered that you can save horizontal tab space using the Views plugin. In this recipe, you will use the Dashboard View plugin to condense the use of the horizontal space. Condensing the horizontal space aids in assimilating information efficiently.
The Dashboard View plugin allows you to configure areas of a view to display specific functionality, for example, a grid view of the jobs or an area of the view that shows the subset of jobs failing. The user can drag and drop the areas around the screen.
The developers have made the dashboard easily extensible, so expect more choices later.
