Move Trim, Columns, Aggregates, and Headings
To move trim, columns, aggregates, and headings
1. Use the arrow keys or your mouse to position the cursor on and select the component you wish to move. You can place the cursor anywhere on the component.
2. Choose the Move operation from the Report Layout frame menu.
The component is highlighted in inverse or blinking video if your terminal is capable of doing so.
3. Position the cursor at the new location, if appropriate. Then choose one of the operations on the Move submenu.
The Move submenu operations are as follows:
Place
Moves the selected component to a position indicated by the cursor. Before choosing this operation, position the cursor at the desired location. For more information, see Place and Shift Operations (see page Place and Shift Operations).
Left
Moves the selected component to the current left margin of the report layout, on the indicated line.
Center
Moves the selected component to the center of the indicated line, as defined by the report's current margins.
Right
Moves the selected component to the current right margin of the report layout, on the indicated line.
Shift
Moves the selected component to a position indicated by the cursor, shifting other components to the right. Before choosing this operation, position the cursor at the desired location. For more information, see Place and Shift Operations (see page Place and Shift Operations).
Column
This operation appears after you place the cursor on a column, aggregate, or heading. It instructs RBF to move the column or aggregate and the associated heading as a unit.
After choosing the Column operation, choose one of the other move operations to move both the column or aggregate and the associated heading. If you do not choose the Column operation, you must move columns or aggregates and the associated headings separately.
This operation is not available for Labels reports. In Labels reports, you are required to move columns and column headings separately.
