The Outline tab provides a high-level overview of all of the items in a visualization, including all pages, page sections, visualization containers, and content items. The Resources panel when the Outline tab is selected is shown in the following image.
When you first open WebFOCUS Designer, the visualization consists of a single content item. Only this item appears in the outline. You can right-click the item to view its WebFOCUS language source syntax.
The sidebar contains tabs that allow you to access, modify, and view properties for different elements and items in a visualization. Each tab in the sidebar displays a related set of resources and options in the Resources panel. The tab selected in the sidebar is indicated by a line next to it, as shown in the following image, where the Fields tab is selected.
The data flow defined in the Data tab is used to create content in the Visualization tab. In the Visualization tab, you can create charts and reports and arrange them on a page in different types of containers, or you can create a visualization from charts, reports, images, and more that you have created and saved previously. If you are creating a visualization with existing content, you can access items in your workspaces and add them to your visualization.
WebFOCUS Designer is divided into a Data tab, which provides options to prepare, profile, and join your data sources, and a Visualization tab, where you can create charts and reports using that data and arrange your content on a page. When creating a visualization with existing content, only the Visualization tab is available, since you do not specify a data source.
WebFOCUS Designer is a web-based development tool that you can use to quickly and easily create content from your data and use that content to create pages, within a single visualization or by assembling multiple distinct content items into a separate visualization. You can manage your data using data flows and use that data to create charts, reports, and interactive and responsive pages, all in one place.
