Chapter 7 Reports

Controlling the layout of list report items

List report items are published as tables, ordered by the name or code of the objects. You can specify which attributes will be displayed, in which order, and the width of their columns.

To specify the layout of a list item:

Select one or more list report items in the Report Items pane and select Report→Layout to open the List Layout dialog, which lists all the attributes available for the object:

Enter any appropriate layout changes as follows:
- Use the arrow buttons at the bottom of the dialog to reorder columns in the table.
- Select the D column next to a property to display it in the table.
- Enter a width in the width column. You can specify the width in millimeters (mm), inches (in) or as a percentage of the table width.

Click OK to return to the Report Editor.

Displaying extended attributes in list items
If extended attributes are specified for the object, they will be available for selection in the List Layout dialog. You can choose to select all extended attributes or only those whose value has been modified using the Display→All and the Display→Only modified ones commands from the list item contextual menu.
