Upgrading Report Styles

IBM® Cognos® Business Intelligence includes a new default report style with updated colors and gradients. If your report uses a custom report template, your report will appear the same in this version of IBM Cognos Report Studio as it did in previous versions. By default, new reports and new report objects, such a lists and crosstabs, appear in the new report style.

If you want to continue to work with the previous 8.x report style, set the Override 10.x styles with 8.x styles on new reports option (Tools, Options, Advanced tab).

You can update the style of an upgraded report to use the new 10.x style (File, Report Properties, Report styles, 10.x styles).
