Hi Elim,

You can do it two ways..

Just draw a line using the Text Box in your dashboard  and drag it your report. then we can place it wherever we want.

(Note : Text Box only..... Not able to move the Line object from sheets to Report Editor)

Or

Goto your Report Editor

Edit Report -> Item -> New Image ->  In the General Tab, Give the expression like

=Repeat('_',85)

And, Check the Image, Give the 100% Transparency.

Then Adjust your textbox length.

1. First create a line object as above.

2. In the report drag and drop the object in the report layout.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.

Sorry should clarify further, I mean from the report editor. I have the dashboard done already, but just don't know how to add a line into the static report editor.

Right Click on Sheet > New Sheet Object > Line/Arrow Object > Apply > OK.

2). Using (Text Object)

Right Click on Sheet > New Sheet Object > Text Object > General Tab > Image > Change > Apply > OK.

Hi Elim,

Line/Arrow object will help to you to add horizontal or Vertical lines in QV design environment.

Just add line object in a sheet and select that object then you can can drag that object borders with mouse points help depends on your Convenient size.

You can also select the line style and color of the line. You can insert a line wherever you want in chart.
