The Dashboard Studio Merge Utility and Import feature enables you to consolidate duplicate images into the Resource Manager. All instances of an image are changed to reference the single copy of the image in the Resource Manager. The Interactive Reporting document file size and memory footprint are reduced, which improves the loading speed, and makes reuse of existing images from the Resource Manager possible when creating dashboards and reports. See “Resource Manager” in the Hyperion Interactive Reporting Studio User's Guide.
Duplicate images are removed when Remove duplicate images from the final document is selected on the Import or Merge tabs.
After the import or merge process is complete, a report detailing the imported or merged sections is displayed. The number of removed duplicate images is recorded at the end of the report.
