Running Content in Full-Screen Mode

When you run interactive content in maximized (full-screen) mode, there are a number of navigational features that you can use. For example, you can change the position of report and chart components in full-screen mode using drag and drop. To drag and drop, simply click the toolbar of any component and, holding the mouse, drag the object to the desired position.

Using the Column Menu for Reports

The column menu displays when you click a column heading in a report. This provides you with access to formatting tools, chart type options, and filters, giving you more control over what displays in your report.

For a non-measure or dimension column, there are three primary sections to the column menu, as shown in the following image.
 

For measures, there are two additional options:

Enabling In-Document Analytics Format

In InfoAssist, you can create content, including reports, charts, and dashboards that leverage the interactive capabilities of In-Document Analytics. Enabling this option provides your users with the ability to interact with and modify the content you created for their own analysis.

Note: If you use the Designer style, you will only be able to select the AHTML output format. APDF can only be used with the Legacy style.

How to Enable In-Document Analytics in InfoAssist

In-Document Analytics Options for Reports (Cell Menu)

You can use a variety of menus and options when performing analysis of an interactive report that uses In-Document Analytics. Depending on the style that you use, these options may be different.

Using the Designer Style interactive report, the cell menu allows you to customize the display of your report, while adding the ability to quickly add filters. The cell menu displays when you click on each cell in a report. This enables you to highlight an individual value or a row. You can also reverse a previously highlighted aspect. The cell menu is shown in the following image.

Video: How to Configure a Custom WebFOCUS Home Page

Hello. In this video we would like to show the Redirect /ibi_apps setting and the set of options it contains that allow administrators to configure where they want to direct users when they sign into WebFOCUS. 
The location defined in these options applies to all users, regardless of whether they sign into WebFOCUS from the main sign-in page, a custom sign-in page, or the sign-in page of a pre-authentication provider.
The WebFOCUS Home Page contains many new features and uses a modern design that works well on desktops, laptops, and mobile devices.

Video: How to Log Global Updates

Welcome to our ReportCaster video on recording global updates.

When you use the ReportCaster Console Global Updates tool to update a value, you will generate a record of the global update you just initiated. This logging behavior is activated by default.

Now, we’re going to demonstrate how this feature works.

In this example, we will change all email addresses that will be used by ReportCaster schedules.

Instead of distributing reports to EmailA@ibi.com, we will change the email address for all schedules using EmailA@ibi.com to EmailB@ibi.com.

Video: How to Monitor Server Performance

Welcome to our ReportCaster Video on viewing graphs for Loaded Classes and Live threads. 

These two graphs can help users streamline the debugging and troubleshooting process for distribution servers. 

When you navigate to the ReportCaster Console, click the Server Performance button to see six graphs measuring various performance attributes. 

The Loaded Classes graph measures the amount of classes that have been loaded and unloaded during the past hour. 

Video: Usability Improvements for Auto Populating Fields

Welcome to our ReportCaster video on auto populating the FTP field and the names of Report Library files.

These are usability improvements for the ReportCaster scheduling tool.

When you set a schedule to distribute a report using an FTP distribution method, the file name information contained in the Save Report As field will automatically transfer to the name field for your Single File FTP distribution method.


The Save Report As field information will also be transferred to Library Reports. 

Video: How to Use the Resource Selector

This video will show you how to use the Content area of the Resource Selector in WebFOCUS Designer.

Each content item is represented by thumbnails, allowing you to quickly identify it.

To navigate to other domains or folders that are available to you, click the back arrow.

You can also use the Search field to search for specific content.
