Hi Maria,

In Exhibit 1.0 every tile view will end up using the same lens template. 
So the short answer is it's not possible in Exhibit 1.0.

... but in Exhibit 2.0, there is a lot more flexibility. See this example
    
http://people.csail.mit.edu/dfhuynh/projects/test-cases/multiple-tile-views.html
where there are 3 tile views: one at the top where the names are 
underlined, and 2 at the bottom (switchable) where the names are either 
bold or italicized.

Exhibit 2.0 has not been released and I can't vow to support it at this 
time. You can still try it out to get a taste of what's coming... which 
will include things like scatter plots and the ability to put facets 
anywhere you like (not just on one side):
    
http://people.csail.mit.edu/dfhuynh/projects/factbook/factbook-people.html

By the way, it's *great* that you're NOT a developer :-) It's our goal 
to make our software dead easy so everyone can use it. If you have 
non-developer friends with  or without developmental tendencies, please 
ask them to try our software out :-)

Cheers,

David
