h2. Minimise and Report Restore
{styleclass: Class=topLink} [top|#top] {styleclass}
There may be times when you wish to manage your dashboard by minimising the reports that have been displayed.  This provides you with more room on your dashboard to add further reports -- and maximise them as you need them.
# To minimise a report click the portlet edit drop down and select the minimise option.  The page will refresh and the selected report will minimise.   The minimise option will now be replaced by a restore option in the drop down.
# To expand the report back to its original size click the restore link in the drop down menu.  This will refresh the page and your report will be displayed in your dashboard again.


h2. Maximising your Report
{styleclass: Class=topLink} [top|#top] {styleclass}
The maximise option provides you with the ability to open the report in the standard view mode instead of on your dashboard.  This will also give you access to the edit function if you wish to edit the report data rather than the dashboard properties.
