About template attributes

In the Layout Body area of a template, you can define Default and Override attributes under the following Object Navigator nodes:

Default attributes

The Default node in the Object Navigator defines the default visual attributes (formatting, fonts, colors, and so on) for all report styles. If you want to define attributes for individual report styles, you do so under the Override node.

Multiple section report styles: Group Left, Group Above, Matrix, Matrix with Group

For the report styles that support multiple groups, you can create additional sections as needed. Sections are mapped to groups as follows:
