A report author is building an Active Report for mobile use on an iPad. The report contains a list object. The report author wants to ensure the entire list has a consistent size so that it does not affect the report layout.
Which techniques should be used to ensure this? (Choose two.)
To ensure the entire list has a consistent size on an iPad, specifying the exact width for all columns in the list helps maintain a consistent and predictable layout regardless of the data. Surrounding the list in a defined size block with the 'Use scrollbars only when necessary' property chosen allows the list to be properly contained within a defined space, providing a consistent size and enabling scrolling if content exceeds the block size. This approach ensures the layout is not disrupted by varying content lengths.
incorrect A) E) is correct On the other hand, blocks do not support vertical alignment but they can control overflow by becoming a scrollable area or by clipping content. Scrollable Areas: It is common practice when designing reporting applications for the desktop to nest large objects such as lists inside a smaller blocks with scrolling enabled. This minimizes the impact on overall screen real estate and still allows the user to view all of the detail contained within the object. https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/data/library/cognos/reporting/active_report/page593.html
