Report Manager

Report Manager is aimed at managing DEXiWin reports that contain multiple report elements. Those elements can be:

  • individually selected and deselected for displaying in the report,

  • added to the report,

  • deleted from the report,

  • duplicated,

  • shown in a separate window, and

  • copied or moved to other Report Pages.

Additionally, it is possible to change the order and individual settings of elements.

DEXiWin: Report Manager

Workspace

Report Manager consists of two pages: Elements and Format.

Elements page displays a list of elements included in the report. Elements can be individually selected. Only selected elements are actually displayed in the report.

Double-clicking an item on the Elements page opens up the Report Parameters window, providing an opportunity to edit this element’s properties.

Format page allows changing two settings that apply to the entire report: report title and font.
