Report Studio

Adding Conditional Rendering

 

Add conditional rendering to specify which objects are rendered when a report is run. This is useful when your report contains sensitive data.

Conditional rendering is not the same as showing or hiding objects. When you hide an object, the object exists but is transparent. If an object is not rendered, it is not in the report.

For a list of objects that can be rendered conditionally, see the Render Variable property in Report Studio Properties Reference.

To add conditional rendering:

  1. Select the list column to be rendered conditionally.

    Note:
    You must select the list column, not list column body or list column title. If the body or title is selected, as indicated in the Properties pane, use the select ancestor button to select the list column.
  2. In the Properties pane, double-click the Render Variable property.
  3. Click Variable and click the variable that will be used to determine if the column is to be rendered.
  4. In the Render for box, select the values you want the condition to support and click OK.
    Tip:
    A default value exists for the variable, and it is always selected.
