Defining Label Lines in a Report

In this tab, you specify and define the label lines (constant part of the layout) of the Report. A dynamic print preview window displays a simulation of the label lines output.

Procedure

  1. If the table in the -L Lines Definition tab does not contain any -L line yet, click Add to create a first line. Otherwise, click first on a line to indicate the insertion point of the new label. As a result, a new line is inserted just after the selected line.
  2. A default zero value is assigned to the label line to identify the label on the line. The line is marked as erroneous. You must then define the label. To define the characteristics of the label, you can directly enter the required values in the editable column cells or complete the corresponding fields in the Label Definition section that opens.
  3. Click the line then to refresh and display the label identifier and the line label numbers.
  4. To delete label lines in your layout, click Remove.
  5. To reorder the lines in the layout, click the Move up and Move down buttons.
    Note: The possible actions with the buttons are also available in the contextual menu of the table.
  6. To display a view of your layout before you start generating, click Preview in the Label Definition section. A preview window gives you a dynamic view of the lines that you have created in the -L Lines tab. You can leave the window open and see instantaneous updates.
