Formatting blocks offer enhanced layout flexibility by allowing two-column formatting, page breaks, and divider lines in your report.
Insert Two-Column Formatting #
In the “Report Body” tab, click the blue “+” sign to add a content Block.
Note: The blue “+” sign also works in the “Cover Page“and “End Page” tabs, if applicable.
Equal-Sized Columns #
From this Menu, select a Row 50/50 under the Layout Blocks and click “Close“.
Once the block has been created, a Placeholder for a new row with 2 equally-sized columns is shown.
Note: The initial placeholder size does not indicate the actual space the content will take up in the report. Use the Quick Preview button for an accurate representation of your report.
Add Content Blocks to each of the columns shown by clicking the blue “+” signs.
This Example shows an Image in the left block and text in the right block.
