Why 'PDF Layout Painter' displays only a single report at times?
Hi,
Out of curiosity i want to know why 'PDF Layout Painter' displays only a single report at times instead of say 8 reports.

Is it a defect in PDF Layout painter? If so, why does it happen.

Also, i have a resolution to this- i created a 'dummy.fex' at zero position and then all the 8 compound reports got displayed.

Please let me know when - 'only a single report gets displayed ' - is this a defect or a feature of PDF layout Painter in case we want to display multiple compound reports?

Hi Bhavna,
What release is this happening in? You should open up a case and report it.

Bhavna,

That is very strange. I am not having that problem. Please update your profile signature with your release and platform information.

I have had the same thing happening and it turned out that the reports that were missing were running blank because of a change to the data in the data mart. Once this was updated they all appeared.

I am not sure that this is what is happening with yours if you can run it outside the layout painter and get the reports

I am using Web Focus Version - 7.1.4

Does anybody has any clue as to why this happens?

Thanks,

Does this problem occur only in 'Compound layout report' or in 'Co-ordinated report' as well. Well, out here i am using 'Compound Report'.

Thanks,
