Multi-Column Report

This tutorial describes the steps to create a multi-column report,

To demonstrate the multi-column feature, we'll use a report with grouping, similar to the one created in the Grouping Data tutorial.

  1. Select the Detail band, Properties Panel, Actions or Behavior category.

    Then, expand the Multi-Column Options section and set the required Mode.

  2. Then, if you've chosen to Use Column Count, Column Count to 2, Column Spacing to 10.

    The Layout determines the order in which records of the same group are processed.

  3. Now, on the Detail band's surface, a grey area appears, delimiting the available column's width. Adjust the controls width, so that they fit within the effective borders.

The multi-column report is now ready. Switch your report to the Preview mode, and view the result.
