The Rows widget enables adding text based content to your report. They serve as a building block to add customisable content and widgets. Think of rows like paragraphs or “sections” of your report.

Add a row

To add a row, click the Text Block button at the bottom of the report builder or select Text Block from the toolbar add menu. Think of rows as your report sections.

Add a text block to a row:
  • Select the + button in the Reports Toolbar and click on Text Block under Elements. This will add a text block to the last row.
  • From a row tile, hover over the bottom of the tile and open the add menu. Select Text Block under Elements to add another text block. You can also access this menu from the top right hand corner of the tile.

To delete the image, simply hover over it and click the trash icon in the top right hand side. You can also delete an image by clicking on it and pressing delete or backspace on your keyboard. Alternatively you can remove the whole text block or row tile but keep in mind this will remove any other content added to those elements. Tip: For ease of formatting later on, we recommend inserting the image in its own row so you can move it around or delete if required.

Adding an attachment

Once an attachment has been added, click the attachment name to open the attachment menu. Clicking on the link icon will open the attachment (in a new window if selected, otherwise it will open in the same tab and take you away from the report). To edit the attachment, click on the pencil icon. To remove the attachment, click on the bin icon.
