A card that clones/mirrors cards from other dashboard views. Supports three nesting levels: entire view, section, or individual card.

Features

• Three mirroring modes:
  • View-only: Mirror all cards from a view
  • View + Section: Mirror all cards from a specific section
  • View + Section + Card: Mirror a single specific card
• Layout preservation (native) or override (stack/grid)
• Source resolution by view index or path
• Dynamic card creation and rendering
• EN/DE multilanguage support
• Note: Since there is no unique identifier for a card, mirroring is based on section/card indexes. When you move the source card (index changes), the mirror-card will point to another card.
