Edit Display Name for Component Dialog
The Edit Display Name for Component dialog helps you to define in which actions display names of the fields will take part in the data component at runtime. It appears when you select the Advanced button in the Edit Display Name dialog, or right-click a data component created using a query resource in a page report and select Edit Display Name from the shortcut menu.
The following are details about options in the dialog:
Component
- If the dialog is opened by selecting the Advanced button in the Edit Display Name dialog, in the drop-down list, all the data components in current page report will be listed.
- If the dialog is opened by selecting Edit Display Name on the shortcut menu of a data component in the design area, only the specified component will be listed in this drop-down list.
Resource Name
Displays the names of the fields in the selected component.
Display Name
Shows the display names of the fields in the selected component.
Action columns
Indicates whether the actions are enabled for the fields. When an action is enabled for a field, the field's display name instead of the mapping name will be shown in the corresponding dialog or submenu in Page Report Studio; when not enabled, end users will not be able to perform this action on the field in Page Report Studio. If the display name of any field is set to be blank, the field will not be available for any of the actions below. Check the box on the column header to enable the corresponding action on all fields.
