Geometry
These attributes are available for certain elements that have position or size attributes such as
images and boxes.
l
X-Offset: The horizontal distance from the top-left of the object to the left position of its
parent. This is used only for relative and absolute positioned elements.
l
Y-Offset: The vertical distance from the top-left of the object to the top position of its
parent.
l
Width: The width of the element, by default in pixels. For an image, this defaults to the
original image width in pixels.
l
Height: The height of the element, by default in pixels. For an image, this defaults to the
original image height in pixels.
Note
When no unit is added to a geometry value, the default unit will be added to the value; see "Print
Preferences" on page 312.
Page
These attributes appear when selecting the Page node in the Outline Pane.
l
Master Page: Which of the "Master Pages" on page88 to use for the template.
Data Model Pane
The Data Model Pane displays a Data Model used to help design the template, along with
(optional) extracted data. When loading data (see "Loading data" on page221), the resulting
record set is loaded in the Data Model Pane. The information shown is the extracted
information for the current record within the record set.
Data is displayed as a tree view, with the root level being the record table, levels below it being
detail tables, and any level below being called "nested tables".
