Process

1. Insert an Element Group for the risk charts.

This element will contain the charts that we’re going to create.

1. Add an Element Group element to the Report Layout structure. It should be on the same level as the element group you created for the looping element group.

   Tip

   If the element is not inserted to the right location in the element structure, use the Move Up or Move Down buttons in the toolbar to move them to the correct place.

2. Double-click the element in the structure to edit it.

3. Enter the name Risk Charts, which will identify the element in the structure. You do not need to make other settings for the element group right now.

4. Click OK.

2. Add a Page Break element to place the charts on a new page and set up its layout.

You want the risk charts to appear on a new page and next to each other in two columns. To do that, proceed as follows:

1. Add a Page Break element to the Report Layout structure so that it is included within the Risk Charts element group.

2. Double-click the element in the structure to edit it.

4. Enter the text of the heading that you want to see in the output in the Content field. This time, we just want to use the heading Risk Charts, but you can use right-click in this field if you want to add a variable.

5. Select the Include in Table of Contents checkbox to have this section heading appear in the Table of Contents.
