The tool palette and toolbar contain tools used to manually create or manipulate
objects in the Report Editor views (excluding the Web Source view). Each tool
appears as an icon. Some tools, such as the Select tool (),
are common to tool palettes in all Report Editor views. Other tools are specific
to the views in which they appear. Toolbar items have menu equivalents. In Reports
Builder, run your cursor over a tool to display the hint text that identifies
the tool.
The tool palette is positioned
along the left side of the Report Editor views. Click a tool to activate it
for a single operation, or double-click a tool to "lock" it for multiple
operations. You can hide the tool palette by choosing ViewTool
Palette to deselect it.
The toolbar is positioned along the top of the Report Editor views. To use the tools in the toolbar, click the desired tool to perform the action. All toolbar tools also have menu equivalents. If the tool is designed to perform an action on a group of objects, it appears grayed out until one or more objects are selected. Then clicking the tool performs the action on the selected object(s)
