# Panel options
|
|
|
|
Panel options are common to all panels. They are basic options to add information and clarity to your panels. Fields are described below.
|
|
|
|
While not required, we recommend that you add a helpful title and description to all panels.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Title
|
|
|
|
Text entered in this field is displayed at the top of your panel in the panel editor and in the dashboard. You can use [variables you have defined]({{< relref "../variables/_index.md" >}}) in either field, but not [global variables]({{< relref "../variables/variable-types/global-variables.md" >}}).
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
Text entered in this field is displayed in a tooltip in the upper left corner of the panel. Write a description of the panel and the data you are displaying. Pretend you are explaining it to a new user six months from now, when it is no longer fresh in your mind. Future editors (possibly yourself) will thank you.
|
|
|
|
You can use [variables you have defined]({{< relref "../variables/_index.md" >}}) in either field, but not [global variables]({{< relref "../variables/variable-types/global-variables.md" >}}).
|
|
|
|
## Transparent background

|
Toggle the transparent background option on your panel display.
