Some values are free text and some can be selected from a pick list. To

edit a value, simply click in the cell containing it. For text values, double

click in the cell, delete the existing value and type a new one. Then press

the ‘Enter’ button on your keyboard to register the new value.

You do not necessarily have to edit every value. The table below is a

cross-template list of properties with a description for each. We have

excluded the HTML template properties as these are covered in a separate

section (‘L. The InstantAtlas HTML Profile Template’) for that template.

Property

Description

Configuration

The configuration option allows you to choose the

default design and layout from those that are

available. Once the dynamic report has been

published the design and layout can be changed

even further using the Designer.

Colour Profile

The colour profile allows you to choose a default

colour scheme for the dynamic report. Once the

dynamic report has been published the colour

scheme can be changed even further using the

Style Editor.

Report Title

The title of your report as viewable in the title screen

of your browser when the report is opened.

Report Keywords

During publishing, these keywords will be saved as

a meta tag in the atlas.hml file. They are helpful if

you want your report to be found by search engines.

Ideally you would provide 3-4 keywords about the

topic of your report.

Report Description

During publishing, this description will be saved as a

meta tag in the atlas.hml file. It is helpful if you want

your report to be found by search engines. Ideally

you would provide a description about the topic of

your report with approx. 155 characters.

Map Margin

The greater the value, the greater the amount of

empty space that surrounds your base geography in

the map(s) of your report. If the base geography for

your report is a point map file, it is typical to add a

map margin for improved display.

Once you have made your selections, click the ‘Publish’ button.

Alternatively, click the ‘Back’ button to return to the ‘Choose Your

Background Images’ screen.
