Adding a bookmark element

This section describes the bookmark template element, which can be used to design your document-style report.

About this task

The bookmark concept is similar to the bookmark concept used in Microsoft Word documents or HTML documents. You create data or script expressions to define a bookmark. A unique name based on the name of a bookmark and a random string is generated for each bookmark that is defined in the template.

Procedure

  1. In the Palette view, select the Bookmark icon Bookmark element and drag it into the template content editor.
  2. Double-click the bookmark to edit the content field.
  3. In the Simple value tab in Set Content for Current Element window, enter a name for the bookmark.
  4. Optional: To allow the same bookmark to be used in multiple places in the document-style report:
    1. Select the bookmark element.
    2. In the Properties view, select Specific.
    3. In the Ensure unique property, select false.
  5. Click the Save icon to save your changes.

Results

The template content editor displays only the beginning of each line that you enter in elements that use the Content property. If a text block includes multiple lines, the editor shows the additional lines in a truncated form. This behavior helps you recognize that the content spans multiple lines while keeping the emphasis on the overall structure of the template.

What to do next

Create an internal hyperlink.
