Printing Objective Groups in Columns Video

This video explains how to configure academic reports so that selected objective groups print side‑by‑side in columns, rather than vertically, giving schools greater control over report layout and presentation in TASS.web Student Admin > Academic Reporting. It demonstrates how column printing works in practice, how to enable it using runtime options when generating student reports, and how objective group sort order determines column placement. The video also covers advanced customisation using style sheets, including controlling column widths, adjusting borders, styling left and right columns independently, and positioning distribution charts beside objectives, showing how small configuration changes can significantly improve the clarity and visual impact of academic reports.
