Copy Conditional Styles from one report to another

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

In case of developing a group of reports within one project the styles the design of data tables is supposed to be the same. And it is hardly convinient to create the same Conditional Styles in every single report when you have dozens of them.

In Cognos 10.x we could go to Tools -> Manage Conditional Styles, point the style(s) you want to copy, press Ctrl + C, then in a target report open Tools -> Manage Conditional Styles and press Ctrl+V. It worked perfectly.

I asked the support in TS015501228 and the answer was that there is no such option in Cognos Analytics

So, it has been removed. Get ot back, please.  I really hate wasting my time doing the same thing over and over again instead of using ready Conditional Style from previuosly done report.

    Agree that C10 was much better for this.


    The workaround we have in C11/CA is to put the all the conditional styles that you want to copy onto a text item. You can then copy/paste that text item from one report to another. When you copy the text item it will take all the attached conditional styles/variables with it.


    Beware though, C11/CA will even copy a style even if it exists in the target report. you can end up with multiple versions of the same styles/variables.
