To add visuals to a section in a paginated report

  2. Choose the ADD (+) icon in Visuals pane.

  3. Choose the visual type that you want to use in your report.

Add button with dropdown arrow and Build button in a user interface.

After you add a visual to a report, you can interact with it the same way you would if the visual was part of an interactive dashboard. You can drag and drop visuals anywhere you want, similar to a free-form layout in a QuickSight interactive dashboard sheet. You can also overlap visuals, resize them, or bring them forward or to the back of the section. For more information on formatting visuals in Amazon QuickSight, see Formatting in Amazon QuickSight.

To delete a visual
  1. In the section that you want to delete a visual from, select the visual that you want to delete.

  2. Choose the three-dot icon in the upper right corner of the visual to open the on-visual menu.

  3. Choose Delete.

When you delete a visual from a section of a paginated report, you are only deleting that specific visual from the report. Any duplicate visuals that are located in different sections of the report will remain in the report.
