Design Multi-Column Reports More Easily

June 5, 2026
ActiveReportsJS V6.1 displays column boundaries directly in the designer, making multi-column layouts easier to create.

ActiveReportsJS by MESCIUS is a JavaScript reporting toolkit that allows developers to design and embed interactive reports within web applications. It includes a standalone report designer for building reports visually and a JavaScript report viewer component that integrates with web frameworks such as React or vanilla JavaScript. The toolkit supports a range of data visualization options and export formats, helping developers deliver rich, interactive reporting capabilities in the browser.

The ActiveReportsJS Report Designer now offers a more intuitive design-time experience for multi-column reports. Column splits are displayed directly on the design surface, providing clear visual guidance when creating report layouts. To help maintain layout accuracy, controls can be placed in the primary column while additional columns are automatically generated at runtime as content grows. This approach makes it easier to design, preview and manage multi-column reports while reducing the risk of unexpected layout issues.
