Separator¶
The Separator component is a straightforward tool that allows you to create visual breaks and spaces in your reports. It is particularly useful for creating clear distinctions between different sections, enhancing readability and organization.
What is a Separator?¶
A Separator is a simple line that can be inserted into your report. It can be either horizontal or vertical, depending on your layout needs. The primary purpose of the Separator is to create a visual break, making your report easier to read and understand.
Configuring Separator¶
Customize the Separator's behavior and appearance to fit your specific needs using the available configuration options.
- Adding the Separator:
- Drag and drop the
Separatorcomponent from the components bar onto a page of the report or within a flow. - Proceed to customize the component's fields within the configuration tab on the right sidebar.
- Orientation: Choose whether the separator should be horizontal or vertical.
Practical Examples¶
See how you can integrate and utilize the Separator in your reports.
- Section Division: Use a horizontal Separator to clearly divide major sections of your report, such as separating an executive summary from detailed analysis.
- Column Separation in Flows: When using a Flow component, insert vertical Separators between different components (e.g., charts, text blocks) arranged horizontally to create clear visual columns and improve layout.
Important Notes & Tips¶
Keep these points in mind when working with the Separator:
- The Separator component is often used in conjunction with other components within a single flow to create clear spacing and an organized report layout.
- Its simplicity makes it an effective tool for visual structure without adding complex elements.
