Hi,
I have a problem with a report that are printing out a models with object information according to the process flow.
The report prints out my process model and the assigned EPCs. The problem is that I want the report to print out the assigned EPCs in the order of the process flow. As for now the assigned models are printed out by a sorting I dont understand. Does any one know how to set up the report in the report wizard so that assigned models are printed out accoridning to the process flow?
I think you are trying to use the Report Wizard and trying to get the topographical sorting (based on the object coordinates / location in the model).. As far as I know, report wizard does not facilitate topographical sorting.
Workaround I can think of:
- You have several out-of-box report scripts that offer topographical sorting option -- look into those report script code and copy the function doing this topographical sorting.
- Once you have your report created using the wizard (everything other than the topographical sorting), edit the report script code to add the function for topographical sorting & modify the code to call this topographical sorting function.
Volker has posted multiple nice articles around report scripts -- you may refer them as well on how this code editing could be done.
Hope this helps !
Hi there,
another workaround would be to start the name of the items you want to show in the table chronologically with a number, and then sort in the report the items by name.
you just need to make sure to use double digit numbering (01, 02,etc.) if you have more than 9 items. (or triple digits when you have more than 99)
it's teadious because everytime you add a new item in the model, you need to renumber the items.
regards,
