When I custom pin a tile that has been customized in color and font, it is displayed only in standard format. I am not able to see any custom added colors or font on the tile that is displayed on the dashboard.This works if I do pin live page .

RE: Custom pin tiles should display the custom background and font changes as well

Really! We design a page and the dashboard doesn't match the report? This is really frustrating. Colors, fonts, size of tiles really mean something. I can't even individually pin each one. If I pin the page there is only one ellipsis to create a url link. I need some way to get all of my visuals on the same page and to link to different urls.

Gone round in circles on this one since I couldn't believe this wouldn't work as standard!!

There is no way to do formatting of backgrounds on the dashboard. Seems like really low hanging fruit.

Can't believe this isn't already implemented... Dashboards are useless without this feature.

Yes I would like to have this feature as well. It is annoying that the formatting is lost.

I think this feature is very important one. Not providing facility to format tiles doesn't make dashboards effective.
