Hiding a Report Object on an Active Technologies Dashboard

For example, when you want to display non-data related objects in the first tab of the dashboard and place report and chart objects in the subsequent tabs, you can hide the first report object using HIDDEN=ON syntax in your WebFOCUS code.

The data from the hidden report is still available for use in the global filter or other filter control.
