Components

Bold, Italic, Underline

Use these buttons to apply Bold, Italic, or Underline to characters in the footer or header.

Line Break

Use this button to insert a line break between characters in the footer or header.

Contains HTML Markup

Use this option to work with HTML codes, as described in "Working with HTML Markup."

Insert Field

Use this menu to select a field to include in the header or footer, such as the author name, date, or page number.

Text

Use these fields to enter the text for the header or footer.

You can reference variables in these fields. For the syntax to use, see "What Is the Syntax for Referencing Variables?" For more information on variables, see "Using Variables."

Edit Format

Click this button to display the "Edit Format dialog," in which you specify formatting for the text in the footer or header.

Display in browser when applicable

Use this option, at the analysis level or at the dashboard page level, to specify whether the header and footer are visible when the analysis or dashboard page is rendered in the browser in interactive mode (for example, at runtime).

This option does not affect the analysis or dashboard page when it is rendered in non-interactive mode, such as printing or exporting. In non-interactive mode, the header and footer are always shown, if they are enabled.

When the analysis is rendered as part of a dashboard page, the setting made at the dashboard page level takes effect rather than the setting made at the analysis level. However, if an action on the dashboard page (such as navigation) redirects the dashboard page to a standalone analysis, the setting at the dashboard page level no longer applies, and the setting made at the analysis level takes effect.
