Tile
If you need to display the information in a compact way, use the tile view. Especially it is handy for displaying records with images.
In many cases the presentation via Tile Views is far more compact than via traditional tables - displaying 16 tiles takes 80% of screen space, while table barely fits to 300%. Please also note that tile views better adapt to small screens of tablets and phones.

To create a Tile View, select the Tile
option from the list of view types and click Next
. The system will display the Tile View form comprising the following sections:

Name | Enter a name of a new tile view. |
Notes | TheNotes field can hold any developer’s comments that need to be kept for this view. The comments will be visible in the Setup mode only. |
Show In Menu | Leave this option checked if the view should be displayed in the menu. |

Highlight Color | Select a color to highlight this view in the list displayed in the menu. |
