Hi, I experience an issue with my visualizations in a dashboard, they keep moving around whenever i open my dashboard. The order i set them when i save the dashboard is not the order i find them when i open it again, or even after a search query that i execute, the visualizations switch their place randomly, causing the dashboard to look messy. Is there a setting to lock them down so that they wont move ? Thanks, Ofer ---

Unfortunately, the visualization order on he dashboard is fully persisted. There is currently a ticket open to add this functionality: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/6138](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/6138) ---

Thanks Tyler, I'll follow up on this ticket, as it is annoying to find my dashboard messed up every time 😃 ---
