Report Manager
--------------

*Report Manager* is aimed at managing DEXiWin :ref:`reports <Reports>`
that contain multiple :ref:`report elements <ReportElements>`. 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 :ref:`Report Pages <XPageReport>`.

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

*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
:ref:`Report Parameters <XReportParameters>` 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.
