The canvas is the
workspace for building a report.
You can change the report
view by clicking the icons at the top of the canvas. You can access
the report views by clicking
beside the
icon.
For more
information about report views, see Choose a Report View.
Above the canvas, there
is an
Auto-update check box. You can clear this check box so that you can design your report without waiting
for a query to finish. When you are finished designing your report, select the
Auto-update check box to run and
refresh all of the queries.
A report can have multiple
sections or info windows, which can be accessed by using the tabs
at the top of the canvas.
There is an area below the section tabs on which you can drag and drop filter controls
and then categories to create section prompts.
For more
information, see Use a Control to Create a Section Prompt.
