Insight is a visualization tool that allows for the interactive selection of measures and dimensions, so you can create dynamic charts that refresh as you make changes.
With Insight, you can review and analyze a chart that shows the data fields that you choose in real-time. It even rebuilds as you select additional fields or specify filters.
In addition to the basic Auto Linking functionality that is available in WebFOCUS Designer, you can also add optional parameters to your Auto Link charts, extending the capability of this feature. An Auto Link enabled chart can link to any target content that you are authorized to access that satisfies the sort (BY) field to the Auto Link target report filter parameter requirement.
Auto Linking makes it easy to connect reports and charts in your development environment, expanding the reporting capabilities of your organization. Using Auto Linking, you can dynamically link HTML5 charts with a single report or chart of any format, based on their common sort (BY) fields and parameters referenced in any filters. It is this commonality that dynamically links content in your WebFOCUS repository, allowing you to discover new possibilities in your data, and explore new relationships within your reporting enterprise.
The Editor enables you to create, view, and edit source code. The Editor supports user-friendly features, such as syntax highlighting, line numbering, code folding, autocomplete, and the display of a status bar and indent guides. These features speed productivity by enabling better clarity in helping you understand, debug, and work with your source code. The Editor offers the ability to run WebFOCUS procedures (FOCEXECs) or HTML pages directly from the Editor.
Using the Enhanced WebFOCUS data workflows, you can easily upload data or connect to data, create synonyms, and more.

Action Bar buttons are organized into different categories.
Categories display according to your domain role and privileges.

In this key feature video we will learn how to create workbooks in WebFOCUS Designer.
A workbook is portfolio that lets you assemble embedded content, combine it with external content from anywhere in WebFOCUS, and build a powerful display, all in the same tool.
To create a workbook, select a domain or folder, and in the actions bar, click Workbook.
The Home Page is the default landing page that opens when you first sign in to WebFOCUS. It serves as a centralized place for creating, organizing, and sharing content, performing administrative tasks, scheduling reports and procedures, and working with your data. These functions are controlled by the permissions that are assigned to role of a user. To learn more about the available roles in WebFOCUS, see the WebFOCUS Security and Administration technical content.
A workbook combines a page and multiple charts into a single file. Using a workbook, you can create a data flow to engage in data discovery, create charts to analyze that data, and add multiple charts to a page for a broader perspective. Using a workbook is a quick way to explore your data in a single session, providing the ability to save multiple content components together for easy access.
You can create interactive responsive pages using content that you or other members of your organization create. Content can be added to a page by utilizing drag-and-drop actions. With the interactive canvas, you can resize and rearrange resources with ease. Additionally you can use the integrated filter control capability to create instant, compelling applications and InfoApps from your content.
