PRINTOUT COMPOSITION

[saclovitzky]

Hello,

I'm having problem regarding print-out composition in terms on how to display them properly and correcting them,ie, element sections were not properly displayed, how to center the values in every column etc.

Pls. find attached screenshot and file regarding this.

Regards,

I don´t know if it is possible to center the text position  but for the field width ,you can edit it (only if it is an screenshot "updated upon printing")  on print preview/edit , click and drag the columms division.

Hi rafael

you should forget about generating a word report. Print it to pdf document instead. It will render a infinitely better report quality in much greater resolution- It will be as good as printing on paper and exactly as you see on the Print preview.

For the print preview problem click on "Normal ciew" button instead of "simplified view"

Actually that is a great advice.Thank you very much. I don't know why I was so stubborn to export it in a word document. Wish you all the best 🙂

Are you able to assist in the following query please?

Issue: When i preview my steel design results i notice that the column widths are pre-set. Therefore in some instances the text is truncated (as shown on far right of table). In addition i dont need some of the columns (ie - material) as the entire model is in steel.

Finally, is there a way to import a number of isometric views/sections of model in this report (not just the single isometric)

On printout composition dialog window ,select the bar table item to be print previewed . then click the edit button and will show the regular bar table itself ,where you can resize the columns without trouble.

To add or remove collumns , right click anywhere on the table area and choose "table columns..." and choose the collumns to be shown.

For more isometric views , just take screenshots and insert them on the printout report through the screenshot tab available on printout composition dialog.

Remembering that you can take screenshots also from any available table
