Definition

In the layout parameters for a report, you can set how many rows and columns per page are to be printed. If the report on the screen is outputted, the number of rows per page is adjusted to the current size of the window. This report view is known as the Normal view.

If the report on the screen is to be outputted with the same number of rows per page as when printing, you can make those settings using the functions 'Settings' -> 'Page/Layout view'.

Notes

  • If you first output the report on the screen and then print it, the Report Writer prints according to the currently set report view.
  • The Report Writer always sends exactly one page to the list processor. It follows from that, that the vertical scroll bar cannot be used in the normal view. Use the either the standard icons or the scroll keys on your keyboard to scroll.
