<groupLeft> XML tag

The <groupLeft> tag delimits a master-detail style within a section of the report’s layout. The master records are placed to the left of the detail records. If you use the <groupLeft> tag, then you must also nest a <group> tag to identify the master group as well as <field> tags to list the fields you want to include in the <groupLeft> layout.

Syntax

<groupLeft
  name="style_name">
  <group>
    master_group_content
  </group>
  detail_group_content
</groupLeft>

Example

The following example shows a segment of an XML report definition that defines a section with a group left layout inside of it:

<section name="main">
  <groupLeft name="m_emp">
    <labelAttribute font="Arial" fontSize="10" 
      fontStyle="bold"/>
    <group>
      <field name="f_deptno" source="deptno" 
        label="Department "
        font="Arial" fontSize="10"/>
      <field name="f_sumsal" label="Total 
        Salary" source="sumsal" 
        textColor="red" font="Arial" fontSize="10" 
        fontStyle="bold">
        <labelAttribute font="Arial" 
          fontSize="10" fontStyle="bold" 
          textColor="red"/>
      </field>
    </group>
    <field name="f_ename" source="ename" 
      label="Name" font="Arial" fontSize="10"/>
    <field name="f_sal" source="sal" 
      label="Salary" font="Arial" fontSize="10"/>
  </groupLeft>
</section>
