Display components
You can use tags and attributes to change the display components in a report template.
fp:attrstat1d
Presents the statistics for one attribute. The information in the user interface and in the reports might differ. For example, the user interface uses both bars and numbers, but the reports use numbers only.
This component has the common attributes, the common tags, and these specific tags:
 
Tag
Description
attrId
A mandatory tag of type attrParam that has the attribute that the statistics are made for. The masterid for the attrParam is the ID of the viewParam named viewId.
viewId
A mandatory tag of type viewParam that contains a view ID.
sumAttrId
An optional tag of type attrParam (type="numbertext") that has the attribute that is used as the Sum attribute. The masterid for the attrParam is the ID of the viewParam named viewId. The default setting is to not use a sum criterion. Instead, the number of elements is counted.
sumCritId
An optional tag of type critParam that has the criterion that is used as Sum criterion. The masterid for the critParam is the ID of the viewParam named viewId. The default setting is to not use the sum criterion, but to count the number of elements instead.
showElementLists
An optional tag of type checkboxParam that determines if the titles of the elements must be listed explicitly. If the value is true, sumAttrId and sumCritId are ignored. If the value is false, the titles are not displayed, and either the number of elements or the sum of an attribute or a criterion is displayed. The default value is false.
valueAttrId
An optional tag of type attrParam that has the attribute that is used when attribute values are gathered. The masterid for the attrParam is the ID of the viewParam named viewId. The default setting is to not gather attribute values; instead, the number of elements are counted.
