Before you Begin
This tutorial shows you how to configure a presentation using Auto mode in Oracle Analytics.
Background
In an Oracle Analytics workbook, you create visualizations using charts, maps, graphs, and other graphical representations to aid consumers in understanding complex data. You can configure a workbook's presentation settings to customize the consumers' view by setting workbook and canvas properties, specifying interactivity, and arranging the canvases to curate the end users' experience. You can also use the presentation settings to specify how your consumers move from one canvas to the next.
In this tutorial, you use Auto mode to learn what you can do with a workbook's presentation settings. Oracle Analytics maintains synchronicity between the canvases in the workbook editor and the canvases in the consumer view when you use Auto mode. As a result, you must rename and rearrange the canvases in the workbook editor or in Manual mode 
.
