Modifying Section Properties

Open a report in RDA.

  1. Click the section for which you want to modify properties.

  2. From the Section menu, select Section Properties.

  3. On the General tab, you can change the section title and review the business view that is attached to the section.

    You might want to change the section title if you have two sections with the same title. This might be the case when you create custom sections that use the same business view as the detail section.

  4. Select the Font/Color tab to review and modify font properties for the entire section.

    Select the Apply settings to all Objects option to override any font property settings of individual objects.

    To return the font properties to the system default, click the Defaults button.

  5. Select the Fields tab to review the fields that are included in the section layout.

    You can select a field and click the Field Properties button to modify the field properties of the field.

    Double-click the icon of a field to toggle between invisible and visible.

  6. Select the Advanced tab to review and modify additional section properties.

    The advanced options vary depending on the selected section type.
