Create Report Controls

All available report controls are listed in the Toolbox. To add a control to the currently opened report, drag and drop it onto an appropriate report band.

Report controls of appropriate types are created automatically, after you drag items from the Field List and drop them onto the report surface.

To add a new band of a particular type, switch to the Properties Panel, select the report or an existing band in the Report Controls drop-down list. Then, expand the Actions category and click one the available buttons.
