Notes:

- Page Report Studio has two view modes: Basic View and Interactive View, and the toolbar and menu commands that are available in each mode vary. Administrators can specify the default mode that will be applied when a report is opened in Page Report Studio in the Profile > Customize Server Preferences > General tab, and you can switch between the two modes by clicking the Basic View or Interactive View link on the Page Report Studio toolbar. However, you will not be able to switch the mode if the Show Link of Basic/Interactive View option in the Profile > Customize Profile > Page Report Studio > Properties > Default tab is unchecked.
- The options available on the Page Report Studio window are determined by the feature profile that is selected as the default profile in the Profile > Customize Profile > Page Report Studio > Features tab and the property setting on the Profile > Customize Profile > Page Report Studio > Properties tab (profile has the higher priority). The default Page Report Studio profile provides full options.
- The shortcut menu contents vary with the objects you right-click. The above table only lists some typical shortcut menu items. The following sections will guide you to use the shortcut menu for any object you may right-click.
