Report Studio

You use active report controls to create the layout of an active report as well as filter, sort, and navigate through data in the report.

Layout

The following controls are used to build the layout of an active report:

• Tab controls, which are used for grouping similar report items.
• Decks of cards, which are used for layering report items.
• Hiding or showing list columns, which allows users to control the data they see by using check boxes.
• Row numbers, which show the number of rows of data in a control.

Filtering and Sorting

To help report authors deliver the content in the most consumable way possible, Report Studio provides several new filtering controls:

• List and drop-down list controls
• Interactions with charts
  For example, clicking a category in a chart filters the data in a list.
• Radial buttons
• Check boxes
• Toggle buttons
• Push button controls

Navigation

To help users navigate through data in a report, report authors can add the following controls:

• Iterators
• Sliders

Data Containers

Data containers, such as lists, crosstabs, charts, and repeater tables, are also considered controls in an active report, as you can add interactive behavior to them.
