# 1. Navigating the Analytics+ toolbar

Analytics+ is a one-stop shop for dashboards and storyboards, offering charts, cards, and tables in a single visual platform. A key aspect of Analytics+ is that it is highly customizable. You can tailor the report to the specific needs of the audience. 

First things first - to enable the toolbar, after assigning data, hover over the top portion of the visual and click on the arrow icon. 

{% hint style="info" %}
 The toolbar will automatically be displayed if you resize the visual to fill the canvas.
