Question Labview FRC Custom Dashboard Problem

I was going about creating a custom dashboard for our team, since we are using several sensors on our robot this year. I was running low on space, and needed it to fit our larger laptop's screen better, so I changed the VI's window dimensions (within VI properties).

The Dashboard has never been easy to customize (one possible reason for switching to Java), but I have to work with it this year. Does anyone have recommendations on what I can do to resolve this issue? And suggestions or tips to keep in mind when making changes to the dashboard? Thanks.
