Report Studio

Adding Multiple Layouts

 

Add multiple layouts to show a report in different ways. For example, you can define a different layout for each language in a multilingual report. This allows you to create a single report that can be viewed by report consumers that use different regional settings.

To add multiple layouts:

  1. Create a variable and define the condition that will be used for each layout.
    For example, create a report language variable that includes each language that requires a conditional layout.

    Note:
    Expressions used in a conditional layout cannot reference a query.
  2. From the File menu, click Conditional Layouts.
  3. Select a variable, and then select the values that require a separate layout.
  4. Click OK.

A layout is created for each value you selected. Pause the pointer over the page explorer button to navigate the different layouts. For each layout, click the Report Pages link to create a report page, or click the Prompt Pages link to create a prompt page , and add the objects you want.

Tip: You can create new variables from the Conditional Layouts dialog. The variables are added to the condition explorer. For more information see, Adding a Variable.
