Layout and Canvas Usage

Oracle Analytics allows you to arrange multiple views within a single on-screen layout, as well as create multiple canvases with tabs and longer report layouts with automatic scrollbars added as needed. It is best to keep each canvas simple and focused on only a couple of views. Avoid using a large number of small charts or tables placed tightly together on-screen and avoid requiring the user to scroll down the page repeatedly to see all the visuals. Create multiple canvases to simplify your layouts and use a similar arrangement of data in each canvas to make it easy to navigate and read.
