What is a
...
label panel?
A The label panel is - as the name suggests - a panel that can be used to provide a meaningful label for your display board or any area of the display board. For example, if the display board is showing summary stats for your London site you might want to name the label panel as "London summary stats". If your display board is showing call information for the service team in London, you may choose to call the label panel "London Service".
You can also add an image, date and time to a label panel.
The following example shows how label panels could eventually look on a display board. All the label panels are highlighted in red. You can see a larger label panel at the top saying All Telesalesallows you to add textual labels anywhere on your display board. These labels can consist of static text, dynamic text (such as the current date and time), and images (such as your company logo) by specifying no text but choosing a background image.
The example below shows how label panels - highlighted in red - appear on a display board; a large label panel,
, is shown at the top of the screen, followed by two smaller label panels
, and , describing the sections below
, Top Performers and Summary Stats. At the top left hand side of the page, you can see the company's logo, whereas at the top right hand side of the page, you can see the current timethem. Twofurther label panels were used to add a company logo (at the top-left of the page) and the current date and time (at the top-right of the page).
