Showing or Hiding the Grid POV Bar

As a report designer, you can hide or display the grid POV bar. Hiding the grid POV prohibits you from changing the grid POV when viewing a report. By default, the grid POV bar is hidden. However, even when a POV bar is hidden, its values are still operative when running the report.

Note:

The grid POV only displays in a HTML view, and not in a PDF view. In HTML view, the report is interactive, so you can change the Grid POV members, whereas a PDF view is a static document, and you cannot change the Grid POV.

  To show or hide a grid POV bar:

  1. Open a report.

  2. Select the grid for which you want to show or hide its grid POV bar.

  3. Do one of the following tasks in the Grid Properties sheet:

    • To show the grid POV, select the Grid Point of View check box.

    • To hide the grid POV, deselect the Grid Point of View check box.

      Tip:

      As an alternative, you can also select a grid, right-click inside the grid, and select Grid Point of View.
