Report Layout tab

The Report Layout Tab consists of Palette and Layout sections - and sections that allow you to specify a header or footer that appears on each page.

Page Header and Page Footer

The Page Header field allows you to specify text that appears at the top of every report page - while the Page Footer field allows you to specify text that appears at the bottom of every page.

Palette

The Palette displays a list of elements that comprise AppScan® Source standard reports. Some of the elements only display information for categories that have been defined in the Categories tab (see Report Layout Palette - elements that depend on categories).
