Layer Matching
Match method
From the drop-down list choose the required method:
- Automatic - this allows you to enter an expression to match with the selected Report Template Area. It will first try to match with an existing layer name, but if this doesn't produce a match then it will try to match with a layer type
- With layer name - this allows you to enter an expression which will be used to match the name of a layer with the selected Report Template Area
- With layer type - this allows you to specify the type of layer to match with the selected Report Template Area, by selecting a type from the layer type pulldown list
- With current layer - this will match the current layer to the selected Report Template Area
- With all layers - this will match all layers within the current project with the selected Report Template Area
- With all visible layers - this will match all visible layers within the current project with the selected Report Template Area
The following options vary depending on the chosen match method.
