Because user-defined dashboard are always created using the newspaper layout, there is a limit to how many elements you can fit horizontally. Therefore, the trick is to use layout: static for the LookML dashboard so that you can define the dashboard width and element width yourself: https://docs.looker.com/reference/dashboard-reference#layout
Example:
- dashboard: test_wide_2
title: Test Wide 2
layout: static
width: 5000
tile_size: 100
elements:
- name: hello_world
type: text
height: 2
width: 10
top: 0
left: 0
title_text: "very wide"
- name: hello_world2
type: text
height: 2
width: 10
top: 0
left: 10
title_text: "very wide2"
- name: hello_world3
type: text
height: 2
width: 10
top: 0
left: 20
title_text: "very wide3"
