Section padding - Amazon QuickSight

Section padding

You can use section padding to change the margins of an individual section in a paginated report. By default, all sections in a report use the page margins that are configured and applied to the entire report. You can also add section padding to a header or footer. With section padding, you can make a section stand out from other sections by creating another set of margins. Apply the new set of margins to the section on top of the page margins that the rest of the report uses.

To change the section padding of a section
  1. Navigate to the section that you want to add section padding to and open the Edit section.

  2. In the Padding section of the Edit section, enter the amount of padding you want in inches. You can customize the padding of every side of the section (top, bottom, left, and right).

You can't use section padding to decrease the margins of the section. For example, if the margins of the entire paginated report are 1 inch, you can only add to that value with section padding.
