  22. Reports -- Customizing a Report

  23. Ways to Customize a Report • Right click in the text section of a report and select: • “Edit Object” to specify what data is to be included in the report (e.g. Features, Alignments, etc.) • “Duplicate Page” to make a copy in the Report Window of the current page • “Add Object on Page / Section Cut Profile” to add a cut-away view of the CAD model • “Add Object on Page / Custom Label” to add a label to the page based on a selected label template • “Remove Object Modifications” to Undo modifications to an object

  24. Ways to Customize a Report • Right click on a label and select “Edit Object” to specify what data is to be included in a label • Right click on a label and select “Change Template” to change the formatting of that data • Right click on a CAD label and select “Hide Selected Labels” to make the label not visible • Right click on a CAD image that has hidden labels and select “Show Hidden Labels” to make the hidden labels visible • Double-click on a CAD image to modify the zoom and orientation of the image

  25. Ways to Customize a Report • Double-click on a CAD label to reposition the label • Right click on a CAD image and select “Edit Object” to access the Label Layout Wizard • Right click the GraphicalAnalysis object and change its properties • Double click GraphicalAnalysis object and change zoom and orientation • File | Reporting | Clear Template Associated Data

  26. Customizing a Generated Report Clear Template Associated Data • Removes all report customizing used in the current part program with the current selected report template • Does not affect other part programs that use this report template.

  27. What Template is Used? • New part program (order of precedence): • The report template specified as the default report template in the registry, FileMan | DefaultReportTemplateIf registry entry does not exist, it returns TEXTONLY.RTP. • default.rtp, if it can be found, • default.rtp, which PC-DMIS creates.

  28. What Template is Used? • Existing part program (order of precedence): • the default report template for this part program, if one has been established by clicking the "Set as Default Template" button, • the report template specified as the default report template in the registry. The default value is TEXTONLY.RTP, • default.rtp, if it can be found, • default.rtp, which PC-DMIS creates.

  29. Other Operational Considerations

  43. Examining Standard Templates Group Toggle Ruler Align Center Undo To Front / Back Toggle Grid Align Edges Zoom Out Property Sheet Zoom in Ungroup Space Zoom 1:1 Make Same Size View Snap Points Regroup Redo Layout Bar – some have menus

  44. Examining Standard Templates Click Rules TEXTONLY.RPT in the Report Template editor

  45. Examining Standard Templates When to Report Data Rules exist if BOLD Data format Rule for Dimension Location Report Expression Language We will talk more about Rules and the Rule Tree Editor later

  46. Standard Report Templates • Questions: • What happens if I delete a report template that I have set as my default for a part program? • If the report template is not found, “default.rtp” is used. If it is not found, PC-DMIS creates it. It is a TextReportObject with no rules. • What happens if I modify my report template? • Whenever you click the Redraw button in the Report Window, or when you run the part program, PC-DMIS will notice that the report template has been updated and will use that updated report template. • This is a VERY handy feature!

  47. Examining Standard Templates Several text objects TextReportObject with rules PPAP.RTP in the Report Template editor
