Configuring auto text codes
Auto text codes are document or dataset variable information. You can configure the content of any of the following auto text codes:
-
Filter details, which display the report filter and report limit by default, although other types of filters can be displayed.
-
Prompt details, which display the prompt information for all prompts in the report.
-
Report details, which display the complete report details, including report description, prompt details, filter details, and template details.
-
Template details, which display the complete template details, including attribute details and metric details.
You can configure different options for different types of auto text codes. For example, you can select whether to include view filter information or the attribute name in a report filter details auto text code. For report details, you can choose whether to include information on prompts or filters. For a complete list of the options, see:
For the syntax of each auto text code, see Auto text codes for dataset report information. For instructions on adding auto text codes, see Displaying document and dataset report information: Auto text codes. For instructions on formatting the text field that contains the auto text code (such as the font name or background color), see Formatting text fields.
Levels of auto text code configuration
You can configure:
-
The auto text codes in a specific text field in a document, from the Properties dialog box (the text field level)
-
All the auto text codes in a specific document, from the Document Properties dialog box (the document level)
-
The Report Details in the Report Editor, from the Report Details Formatting option (the report level)
For information on configuring the report details, see Configuring report details.
-
All the auto text codes in a project, using the Project Configuration Editor (the project level)
The list above also shows the order of precedence. The configuration of a particular text field in a document overrides the configuration at the document level, which overrides the configuration in the related dataset report, which overrides the project configuration. For example, if a property is set one way for a document and another for the report, the document setting takes precedence.
