Tablix Properties Dialog Box, General (Report Builder 2.0)
Select General on the Tablix Properties dialog box to change the data region name, add a ToolTip, choose the dataset, and add page breaks, row headings, and column headings.
Use options on this page to control the way tablix row group and column group headers display for a tablix data region. Row and column group headers are created automatically when you add groups by using the Table or Chart wizard, by adding fields to the Grouping pane, or by using context menus. When you click in a tablix data region that has group headers, a dotted line shows the tablix areas, as shown in the following figure:
If the tablix data region has only a tablix body area and no group headers, the options on this page do not apply. To help control how rows and columns in groups without group headers render, you must set properties for the appropriate tablix member in the Properties pane. For more information, see "Advanced mode" in Grouping Pane (Report Builder 2.0).
