Got to it!. ...
Spoiler
But I could not figure out at the end how to finish the report with out having an extra layout tool (the first to configure the title and table vertically and add the border) - (the second one to add the red border and horizontally add the pie chart with the combined title/table).

Interesting exercise. Not really troubleshooting; it's more like the problem "solve this with these specific tools" taken to a new level.
Spoiler
I couldn't solve this problem as it was presented. We were specifically told not to rearrange the tools, but I can't see a way to place the table header above the table in a horizontal layout with a single layout tool. Also, I don't see how to put a box around the table without an additional layout tool. So my flow is close (didn't bother with the extra layout tool). Looks like no one else has been able to use the layout either. I am really interested in seeing the solution.

Lots of reporting tool practice lately! Just when I thought I was a pro at reporting tools, this one definitely stumped me!
Spoiler
I can't wait to see the solution, because, like others, I couldn't figure out how to get the table title inside the black border without adding a layout tool (the instructions said not to add any tools). The one I added is highlighted in the pink container.
