Page Layout Variables
The MPR provides several scripting elements used to locate MPR objects on the page and
determine their size and shape:
 [Functions].CursorPos is a global read/write variable that corresponds to the vertical
distance from the top of the working report area.
 [Functions].MoveCursorPos(Inches) is a global function that moves the cursor
vertically on the page by the specified amount (downward for positive Inches), from
the previous CursorPos.
 Top and Left are arguments used with the Add method of the Report object to locate
report objects with respect to the top and left edges of the working report area.
 Width and Height are arguments used with the Add method of the Report object to
determine the size of report objects such as the TrendChart and PieChart.
Run the MPR
Once the MPR script is completed, set up a Multi-purpose Report (MPR). You will need to
assign it groups and/or meters, a time zone, and the MPR script. Once you do that, then
View the report.
Setting up the MPR
Follow these steps to set up the MPR.
1. Select the Reports tab above the navigation tree.
2. Navigate to the Domain in which you wish to locate your MPR.
3. Click the Add button.
Adding a MPR object does not automatically move the CursorPos
to the bottom of the object.
