Change Element Layout in a Report

The user can freely move report elements, for example, labels, by dragging them.

Another way to change the element position is to select an element, and then press the arrow keys.

To resize an element, select it and then drag one of the small boxes shown on its edges and corners.

To resize an element using keyboard shortcuts, press SHIFT+ARROW or CTRL+SHIFT+ARROW.

The user can also easily align controls to each other or make them the same size, by selecting the multiple controls and using the Layout Toolbar.

To select multiple controls, use one of the following methods:

• Click the controls while holding CTRL or SHIFT.

• Click on blank space and drag the mouse to create a selection frame around the controls.

  When the mouse button is released, all controls within the selection frame's boundaries will be selected. In this case, any previous selection is cleared.
