Document Map

Here, you can enter any expression that you want to use as a bookmark for the entire composite group. However, this only makes sense if the composite group itself is located inside another composite group that is repeated on a specific value. If you want to create bookmarks for items inside the composite group, edit the document map expression in the Properties dialog of one of these items.

For more information on the document map, see Document Map.

Customize Layout

This feature is available only for few special predefined composite groups snippets, the flowlayouts.

The settings in this area are only active if you applied a grouping in the Grouping page.

Number of columns

Number of columns to be repeated to the right.

For example, if you choose 4 columns, the composite group will be replicated 4 times to the right. In the Editing Pane, you can configure only the first column. The other 3 columns are grayed out, as they are simply repetitions.

With the number of columns set to 1, the composite group behaves as a list.
