Unable to resize/arrange panels on tab

Grafana Dashboards
1

On Grafana v13.0.3

I’ve got a dashboard with multiple tabs. I’m not entirely sure how I ended up in this situation.

On one tab (the first one I created, if it makes any difference), panels are resizable and arrangeable as I’d expect. When in edit mode, the resize handles appear in the lower right. I can drag/drop panels above & below one another.

On other tabs, panels don’t have any resize handles. I can add a panel to the right of an existing panel, but seemingly can’t move it above or below. The only way to get panels to stack vertically is to create them within rows.

Is there any reason the content on some tabs is more flexible than others?

Ahh it looks like each tab has a “layout” option. Some are set to auto, others are set to custom. Working on fixing this now.

For anyone else who runs into this → it looks like the per-tab Layout setting is the first thing to check. We found that different tabs were using different layout modes and testing whether changing the layout restored the expected drag-and-resize behavior. If you see the same symptoms, compare the Layout setting for the affected tabs first.
