Strategy ONE

Enabling page-by

If you have used grouping fields to organize data in the document, then by default page-by is enabled for all grouping fields. For steps to use grouping fields, see Grouping records in a document.

The steps below show you how to enable page-by on a grouping field if page-by has previously been disabled.

To enable page-by

  1. In MicroStrategy Web, open the document in Design or Editable Mode.

  2. From the Tools menu, select Grouping.

  3. In the Grouping panel, right-click the grouping field on which to enable page-by and select Grouping Properties. The Grouping Properties dialog box opens.

  4. From the Page-by Mode drop-down list, select one of the following options:

    • Page-By (Single Element Only): Enables page-by for this group, but you cannot display all the elements of the group simultaneously when the document is viewed as a PDF or in HTML. This option is useful for groups with many elements, when you do not want to display all the elements at one time.

      When a document contains multiple groups, this option is unavailable for the group farthest to the right in the Grouping panel.

    • Page-By (Single Element or All): Enables page-by for this group and allows all elements of the group to be displayed simultaneously.

  5. Click Apply to apply your selections.
