Choosing and ordering widgets

The dashboard’s main column holds six widgets at most, in up to three rows of two. You control which six and where they sit. The right sidebar is arranged separately, with its own cap of three.

Before you start

Two widgets are permanent and have no remove control: Profile, and Cases once you have case access. They count against the six.

Add a widget

1. Go to /app/dashboard.
2. In the chip row under the widgets, click Widgets. The count beside it — for example (4/6) — is how many of your six slots are in use.
3. Pick a widget from the list. It saves and the dashboard rebuilds.

The menu offers at most four: ImmiReport, Latest draws, ITA deadline, and Processing time — and only the ones that currently apply to you. Everything else is either permanent or placed automatically when it has something to show.

The Widgets menu open from the quick actions strip, showing Auto above the addable widgets.

At six slots the list greys out

When all six are in use the names stay visible but cannot be clicked. Remove something first.

Hide a widget

Hover over a widget and click the × in its top-right corner.

Not every widget has one. Profile, Cases, and Compliance are pinned and cannot be hidden. The rest can: ImmiReport, Latest Draws, Filing deadline, Est. processing time, Your progress, Recommendations, Smart Journey, and Status in Canada.

Hiding is a decision Lexpoint remembers

A hidden widget is never placed again on its own, even when it becomes newly relevant. If it is one of the four in the Widgets menu you can add it straight back. If it is not — Recommendations, Application timeline, Smart Journey, Your reported progress — the only way back is Auto.

Reorder widgets

1. Hover over a widget. A drag handle appears in the narrow gutter to its left.
2. Drag it onto another widget.
3. Watch the drop hint before you release:

Hint	Where it lands
A line down the left edge	Immediately before that widget
A line down the right edge	Immediately after that widget
A ring around the whole card	Beside it, sharing that row

A row holds two widgets at most, and there are three rows. The layout saves as soon as you drop.

Auto

Auto sits at the top of the Widgets menu. It discards your arrangement and rebuilds the dashboard for where you are now: the widgets that suit your current stage, in their intended order. It also clears your hidden list, so anything you dismissed can come back, and clears the case you had pinned as the focus for the timeline and processing widgets.

Use it when the dashboard has drifted out of step with your situation — or to recover a widget the Widgets menu does not offer.

When your journey changes in a way that makes your saved layout stale, Lexpoint may propose a refreshed arrangement on your next visit without waiting for you to click Auto.

The right sidebar

Different rules, on wide screens only. Three blocks at most, starting with Consultations and Proposals.

• Add — Add widget at the bottom of the column opens the list; pick one, or Cancel. Once three are placed the control is replaced by All available blocks are in your sidebar.
• Remove — hover a block and click the × beside its heading.
• Reorder — drag the handle at the left of a block’s heading onto another block.

Sidebar changes save immediately and do not reload the page. As in the main column, a removal sticks: the freed slot stays empty until you add something to it.

Choosing which draws appear

The Latest Draws widget has its own slots — four across a full-width row, two when it shares a row. Remove a draw with the × on its tile, then use an empty slot’s Add draw control to search the program list and pick another. These picks are saved to your account alongside the rest of your layout.
