Configure the widget’s display properties
6 Right-click the widget, then select Properties and Formatting. The
Properties and Formatting dialog box opens.
7 From the left, select Widget.
8 Click the Widget Properties icon . The Interactive Grid Properties
dialog box opens.
9 By default, the rows of the widget are not banded. To apply banding to the
widget, select the Banding check box.
10 By default, the width of the columns in the widget is automatically
determined. To manually specify the width of each column, clear the
Automatic column sizing check box. In the Width (%) fields, specify the
width of each column as a percentage. The widths for all columns should
add up to 100.
11 You can allow users to group the data displayed in the widget by selecting
an attribute element. Do one of the following:
• To allow users to group the data displayed in the widget, select the
Apply Grouping to check box. The first attribute on the widget’s
Grid/Graph is automatically used to group the data when the widget is
viewed.
• To display the widget without grouping its data, clear the Apply
grouping to check box.
12 From the Color Theme drop-down list, select a color theme to use to
display the background color, border color, and header color of the
widget.
13 You can select a default action (such as drilling on an attribute, opening a
report or document, or acting as a selector) to perform for attributes and
metrics that have no action defined on the widget’s Grid/Graph. From the
Default Action Form drop-down list, select an attribute. The action
defined for this attribute will automatically be performed when a user
taps a value in the widget for which no action is explicitly defined.
It
is recommended that you assign an action to only one attribute
form in the widget. For example, if you want one attribute to act as
a selector, ensure that drilling is disabled for the Grid/Graph, and
that the attribute does not link to another report or document.
