Summary
In Sage Report Designer there are options available to restore the desktop to its default view. This can be especially useful when the menu panes such as Properties and Variables don't appear.
Resolution
To reset the view, click View, then click Reset Default View.
After resetting the view, you can open any required panes from the View menu. If you have chosen to auto-hide any of your Report Designer panes, the name appears in a tab to the left or right of your window. To expand a pane, click on its name.
