Selecting Web Intelligence Viewing Preferences

You can choose a different view format and formatting locale to correspond with how you interact with information in Web Intelligence documents through InfoView.

To select a view format for Web Intelligence documents

1.    Log on to InfoView.

2.    On the InfoView toolbar, click Preferences.
The "Preferences" page appears.

3.    Click the Web Intelligence section.

4.    In the "Select a default view format" area, select the format that you want to use when you view your Web Intelligence documents:

·            Choose Web if you want to be able to view and print documents, respond to prompts, and/or perform drill analysis. You can also track data changes in the Web viewer if you have the necessary rights.

·            Choose Interactive if you want to be able to view and print documents, apply filters to the documents, do sorts and calculations, modify the format of the data in tables and charts, respond to prompts, and/or perform drill analysis.

Note.pngThis option is available only if you have Web Intelligence deployed in JSP mode.To be able to use Query-HTML (the Interactive editing tool) to create documents and/or edit queries, it is recommended that you select this option. If you do not select the Interactive view format, you can still use the Query-HTML to define your documents, but you will not be able to format them.

·            Choose PDF (Adobe Acrobat Reader required) if you want to be able to respond to prompts, view and print documents directly in PDF format. Depending on how your BusinessObjects Enterprise administrator configures your system, you may view a PDF of the entire document, or of the default tab. If you view a PDF of the default tab, you can create PDFs of the other tabs of the report by clicking the links at the bottom of your screen.

5.    Click OK.
