Changing the report style

The general style properties for a report include:

InfoMaker assigns defaults when it generates the basic report. You can change the defaults.

To change the default style properties:

Position the pointer in the background of the report, display the pop-up menu, and select Properties.

The Properties view displays with the General page on top.
Click the unit of measure you want to use to specify distances when working with the report:
- PowerBuilder units (PBUs)
- Pixels (smallest element on the display monitor)
- Thousandths of an inch
- Thousandths of a centimeter
Choosing the unit of measure If you plan to print the contents of the report at runtime, change the unit of measure to inches or centimeters to make it easier to specify the margin measurements.
Specify the number of milliseconds you want between internal timer events in the report.

This value determines how often InfoMaker updates the time fields in the report. (Enter 60,000 milliseconds to specify one minute.)
Select a background color from the Color drop-down list and click OK. The default color is the window background color.
