Report Name: Set the title of the report. This is also used to print the report for later viewing.

Date Options: Reports typically specify either a single date, or a date range, for the report. Dates can be specified in two ways, either directly (using the date selector), or by selecting a relative date from the menu. Relative dates allow you to specify dates like "Beginning of this year" or "Today".

Step Size: This option is used on bar charts to determine the interval which each bar represents. Typical values are daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly.

Accounts: Select the appropriate accounts for the report. Note that in some reports only certain types of accounts can be selected. For example, an expense piechart only allows expense accounts to be selected.

Show Long Account Names: This option allows displaying either short account names (for example, Power) or long account names (for example, Utilities:Power).

Include Subaccounts?: Summary reports typically have an include all subaccounts option, which if selected ensures that all subaccounts are included if the parent account is.

Depth: This option allows the selection of how many levels the report displays subaccounts. If the subaccounts go deeper than selected, an overall value for all the subaccounts is calculated and included in a total. To make sure every account selected is individually displayed, select All.

Style Sheet: Select a Style Sheet. Style sheets control how reports are displayed. At the moment, there are three style sheets, "default", "Easy" and "technicolor". You can customize each of these from the Edit -> Style Sheets... menu item. This is described in the Changing Style Sheets section. Changing Style Sheets
