### Optimized information density for the Sections view
For this release, we have also fine-tuned the design grid for our
[experimental Sections view](/dashboards/sections/).
The height of each row has been reduced, allowing more information to be
displayed on the screen. Hours of pixel pushing have also reduced the gap
between the [Tile card](/dashboards/tile/) contents and its
[features](/dashboards/features/), resulting in a cleaner and more
uniform appearance.

If you have been experimenting with sections and have resized some of your
cards, you may need to readjust the sizes to accommodate these changes.
