About Reports

You can drag and drop tables, graphs, gauges, and controls to create a well-designed report in SAS Visual Analytics Designer (the designer). You can add text, images, and other controls to reports. A report can be divided into one or more sections. (Sections are like pages.) Each section can have a different layout and contain different report objects.
When you design a report, keep in mind that it might look slightly different on a mobile device or in the viewer. For example, the layout of the tiles in the treemap is dependent on the size of the display area. This means that the same treemap might appear slightly different in the designer than it does in the viewer or on a mobile device.
Reports that are imported from SAS Visual Analytics Explorer (the explorer) might look slightly different in the designer.
The designer provides a report view that enables you to change the size of the canvas that you use for laying out reports. For more information, see Choose a Report View.
Two report layouts are available in the designer: Precision and Tiled. For more information, see Choose a Report Layout.
