It would be great to have a bit more control over the size of the section block. The minimum height is quite large in some situations, especially how it renders on a phone. Sometimes I only want to place a very small amount of text or information, but the section block winds up taking almost as much space as a gauge and can look awkward. It would also be nice to support markdown in the title of the header as well! Thanks. ---

Supporting Markdown in the section header should be doable. As for the height flexibility, we have some improvements related to dashboards - especially in mobile views - already in the pipeline, and that issue should be addressed there. ---

I would probably suggest supporting markdown within all the block header text areas if that is possible, in addition to the section headers. ---

Markdown is actually already supported in block titles, so you can easily add things like links! ---

is it possible to add little images/icons in the headers? ---

Yup! The headers don’t resize, they are a fixed height, so dropping larger images won’t look good. But icons or small images work great. ---

if I store icons on Losant Files, can I reference them like this `![image](https://files.onlosant.com/xxxxxxxxx/image.png) ?` ---

Any plan on some kind of vertical separator block, or is there a way to do that some other way? ---

There is not currently a plan for these, but I will request it as a feature from our dev team! I am not sure if there is a good way around this currently, but I have seen great dashboard organization using the normal section header to “separate” off sections, like so: ![10%20PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/getstructure/original/2X/4/4adb4a5d496d132fab06a8116021150effe746e0.png) Thanks, Julia
