Title: Page Explorer content in Report Studio
Post by: gurudrond on 27 Apr 2015 02:02:18 AM
Hey Guys,

I am just imitating a report studios report and found something which is not familiar to me.
Actually, the report is drill through from (Default Layout) - Page 1 to PDF - Page 1 and 2 (See attachment).

Please help me to understand the highlighted icons in the attachment and how to create them.

Thanks

Hello gurodrond,
The page layouts is a condition driven page layouts. In simplest form, if a specific condition is satisfied display this layout or if another condition is satisfied another layout else the Default layout.
In your screenshot attached, there seems to be a STRING conditional variable that resolves to the value of PDF, I am guessing it should be having a simple expression based on ReportOutput() function.
When the drill through happens, again I am guessing that the drill through run format is setup as PDF, the first layout in your screenshot shows up.
Hope it helps.
