Correct answer: C
Explanation
Most dashboard content is migrated to the new Performance Analytics. However, some visualisations, aspects of visualisations, and filters are inserted in the migrated dashboard as embedded content (iframes), also known as compatibility mode.
All custom content blocks, gauges, and gadgets are migrated in compatibility mode, as iframes.
All other content that is not a Performance Analytics widget, report, or interactive filter is migrated in compatibility mode, as iframes.
Note 1: An iframe (inline frame) is an HTML element that allows you to embed another HTML document within the current one. Essentially, it creates a 'window' within a webpage, displaying content from a different source.
Note 2: Dashboards with visualisations or other widgets migrated in compatibility mode may experience performance issues.
