In Explorer, when you select Run in Smart Format for an Ad hoc report, it displays in the Smart Report viewer, where you can view the report, export it in different output formats, and other tasks, but you cannot modify the report attributes.
Tip: The Smart Report viewer can look similar to the Smart Report designer. The viewer does not display the Edit switch to the right of the Ad hoc Filters. To modify Smart report attributes, see The Smart Report Designer.
If a Smart report includes a chart or other visualization, you can select a tab in the lower-left to see the various elements. The Smart Report viewer includes these menu or activity areas.
