Mini Expression Component Nexus Component Styling

This component is not available as a Classic Styling component and can only be used if you select the Use Nexus Component Styling checkbox when creating a view.

Mini-expresion component

The Mini Expression component functions the same as the Card component, except that: the mini expression component displays a smaller expression card than the card component.

The Mini Expression component is supported in the List view and is found in the Data Visualization section of the Components tray.

Cards can contain plain text, a link to another view, or an expression.

When you drag and drop a card, you can insert up to four cards side-by-side. If you insert a fifth card, it appears on the next row.
