Input controls¶
Display controls change how the report shows its data:
| Input control | What it does |
|---|---|
| Prompt Selection | Shows or hides the block under the header that lists your prompt answers. Spaced (default) shows it with a space between list items, Show shows it without spacing, Hide hides it. |
| Environment / CMSID | Shows environments in the report body by display name or by CMSID. Filters and prompts always list CMSIDs. |
| Folder / Complete | Shows the folder name or the complete folder path. |
| Number Format | Switches large numbers to a short format, for example K for 1,000s. |
Filter controls keep only the rows that match the values you pick: Environment, Folder, Document, DP Type, Location, Datasource, Object.

Drill links¶
| Link | Opens |

| Document drill | Opens [MM-W12] Object Use Detail for that document. |
| Universe drill | Opens [MM-U11] Unused Objects UNV or [MM-U12] Unused Objects UNX for that universe. |
