Just like with forms, report design can be made easier in the Layout view. By displaying live data while still allowing elements to be repositioned, users can see the immediate effect of their changes. Setting up legible reports requires a fine-tuning of fonts and colors that contribute to a coherent finished product.
- [Instructor] Just like with forums,…report design can be made easier in the layout view.…By displaying live data while still allowing elements…to be repositioned, users can see…the immediate effect of their changes.…Setting up legible reports requires…a fine tuning of fonts and colors…that will contribute to a coherent finished product.…So let's work on cleaning up our check in details report…and bring it into a final state of polish.…Right now I have it opened up here…in the standard report view.…We can switch into layout view using the upper portion…of the view split button,…or you click on the bottom portion of it…and change our view there.…
but another way that we can do it…is to find the report name here in the navigation pane…and simply right-clicking on it and choosing layout view…from the pop-up menu.…Now the first thing that I want to do…is take a look at the page header section.…Go ahead and click on this area,…and that'll highlight that page header.…This is a section that has the column header names…
