(Required) Specifies the fully-qualified path and file name for the XML data Gallery file. This file contains the charts and tables that can be added when the New Visual component is dropped on the report canvas. The file is created using an Analysis Grid's "Add to Dashboard" feature, but a Dashboard is not required. The path must be within the application root folder.

If Logi Security has been used to control access, the current user's name will be available in the @Function.UserName~ token. This can be embedded into this attribute to provide separate Gallery files for individual users. For example, the attribute value might be:

@Function.AppPhysicalPath~\GalleryFiles\@Function.UserName~.xml

which might translate to:

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\MyReportApp\GalleryFiles\BGates.xml

Gallery files can also be stored in a database, see Bookmarks.

(Required) Specifies a unique element ID.

(Required) Specifies the fully-qualified file path and name of an XML "Save" file where the report design changes users make at runtime are saved. Tokens may be used in this attribute, however, @Request tokens are not recommended as they're not persistent. If the file doesn't exist it will be created at first use; however any folder containing it will not be automatically created - you must create it manually. The path must be within the application root folder.

Do not set this attribute when using the Auto Bookmark element in conjunction with Report Author.

If Logi Security has been used to control access, the current user's name will be available in the @Function.UserName~ token. This can be embedded into this attribute to provide separate Save files for individual users. For example, the attribute value might be:

@Function.AppPhysicalPath~\SaveFiles\@Function.UserName~.xml

which might translate to:

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\MyReportApp\SaveFiles\MZuckerberg.xml

Save files can also be stored in a database, see Bookmarks.

Specifies whether users can delete visuals at runtime from the gallery specified above in the Gallery File attribute. The default value is True.

Specifies a caption for the gallery specified above in the Gallery File attribute. This caption appears in the list of galleries in the Visual Gallery panel.

Specifies the display mode and editing options for the report. Options include:

ViewEdit - Initially displays the report in View mode. Users can click Design to switch to Design mode. This is the default mode for existing/bookmarked reports.

DesignEdit - Initially displays the report in Design mode. Users can click View to switch to View mode. This is the default mode for new reports.

ViewContained - Shows the report in View mode, without the ability to switch to Design mode. An existing Save file or bookmark is required. Other elements above and below the Report Author element, such as Report Headers and Report Footers, are also included in the report display.

ViewExtracted - Shows the report in View mode, without the ability to switch to Design mode. An existing Save file or bookmark is required (see Bookmarks). Only the Report Author report is displayed, all other elements in the report are suppressed. This mode is automatically applied to reports downloaded using the PDF Link component.

Specifies the fully-qualified file path and name of an XML data file that will provide a default report design. It will be used only when the Save File does not exist. For example, when the Save File is different for each user, the Save File Starter file can provide a set of default components.

Create a Save File Starter file by first setting a Save File value, then running the application and creating a report that includes the desired default components. Then move and/or rename the Save File into the Save File Starter location and set this attribute. For example:

@Function.AppPhysicalPath~\SaveFiles\DefaultDesign.xml

Specifies the name of an optional Template Modifier File, used to programmatically modify the Report Author super-element UI or behavior at runtime. See Customizing Report Author Appearance for more information about template modifiers. You can provide a fully-qualified file path and name for the file, within the application root folder or, if a fully-qualified file path is not provided, the application expects the file to be in its _SupportFiles folder.

(Required prior to v12.2.116 SP3) Specifies the fully-qualified file path and name of a folder, within the application root folder, where uploaded images will be stored. These are optionally uploaded from the Images component Settings panel, and uploaded files appear in the list of available images in that panel.

If Logi Security has been used to control access, the current user's name will be available in the @Function.UserName~ token. This can be embedded into this attribute to provide separate image folders for individual users. For example, the attribute value might be:

@Function.AppPhysicalPath~\ReportImages\@Function.UserName~

which might translate to:

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\MyReportApp\ReportImages\MMayer

v12.2.116 SP3 - Uploaded files can be stored outside the application root folder. This requires setting a path in the _Settings definition's General element's Report Author Upload Folder Override attribute, which overrides this attribute.

Uploaded files can also be stored in a database, see Storing Bookmark, Gallery, and Save Files in a Database.

Specifies one or more element IDs, in a comma-separated list, of elements that may be necessary for the proper functioning of the report, such as Definition Modifier File or Plugin Call. These are stored in the report's bookmark and included when the report is generated.
