Adding Shading to Rectangles

By default, Report Builder applies a solid pattern with no background color and black as the foreground color to a rectangle. You can change any of these settings.

Follow these steps to specify any pattern or shading:

  1. Select the rectangle.
  2. Choose Properties Rectangle Properties or double-click the rectangle border. The Rectangle Properties dialog box appears.
  3. Choose a pattern from the Pattern drop-down list.
  4. If you want a foreground color, specify the color for the crosshatch pattern from the Foreground drop-down list.
  5. If you select a crosshatch pattern (any pattern except the first selection), specify a color for the background of the rectangle from the Background drop-down list.
  6. Choose OK to apply the new pattern and colors and return to the report layout.
