MicroStrategy ONE

Collapsing or expanding document sections as you design

In Design View, you can collapse a document section by clicking the minus sign next to it. This conserves space while you are editing the document. For example, you are working in the Detail section, so you collapse all the other sections to maximize the amount of space in the Layout area for the Detail section. You can expand a section later, by clicking the plus sign next to it, if you want to edit the section.

Collapsing and expanding a section does not change whether it is hidden or displayed in the finished document. For information on hiding and displaying sections in the finished document, see Hiding or displaying document sections for a finished document.

If you use the Blank Document template, the sections listed below are expanded by default when you create the document. All other sections are collapsed, but you can expand them when you need to work in them.

  • Detail Header

  • Detail

  • Detail Footer

You can also create your own template that has the sections that you commonly work with expanded by default. For instructions to create a document using a template and to create a template, as well as general information about templates, see Creating documents using templates and Creating document templates.
