About inheritance in templates

In templates, Sections, Frames, Fields, Labels, Headings, and Summaries properties all may inherit their values.

Default properties

The Default properties inherit the values preset by Reports Builder. When a property is set to its default Reports Builder value, the icon next to it in the Property Inspector is a small circle. Default properties become localized when you change their values, or select them and click the Localize Property button in the toolbar. When a property is localized, the icon next to it changes to a square. To return the properties to their inherited values, select the properties and click the Inherit Property button in the toolbar.

Override properties

The properties of Override Sections inherit their values from the Default properties. When a property inherits from a Default property, the icon next to it in the Property Inspector is an arrow. Properties in the Override Sections become localized when you change their values, or select them and click the Localize Property button in the toolbar. When a property is localized, the icon next to it changes to an arrow with a red cross through it. To return the values of properties in the Override Sections to their inherited values, select the properties and click the Inherit Property button in the toolbar.
